Notice Of Books Miss Marple Omnibus Vol 1 (Body in the Library / Moving Finger / Murder is Announced / 4:50 from Paddington)
I really liked the book. It was very surprising, unfortunately thats because there barely are any hints. Detective stories, most of the time, give hints. Evidence or theories, which make someone look suspicious. With those you can suspect someone yourself. Most of Agatha Christies books have such things.There were also some words I could barely understand, Id figure it out later on, but it became a little hard to read for a Dutch girl from 2015. And we dont have a fireplace at home, so it took a

Miss Marple Omnibus Volume I is my favourite collection of Christie novels because, whilst some of the other stories use Miss Marple's view of village life as a prism to interpret the crimes committed by the rest of society (we are outside the confines of the peaceful English village in A Caribbean Mystery and in At Bertram's Hotel, for example), here the acute observations of village life are played out in front of us and we have direct access to the quirky but believable characters.A Murder is

Miss Marple, the epitome of the old lady detective. This book contains four of Agatha Christie's best stories.

The body in the Libary - 3 starsThe moving finger - 3 starsA murder is announced - 4 stars4.50 from Paddington - 4 stars

The first two are excellent social dramas. Christie obviously knew a great deal about human nature. And the writing is of a higher quality than I expected. The third story has all those things, but is let down by an improbable plot. Much too contrived and overthought. The fourth story I didn't get to read because my dog peed on the book. Obviously doesn't like whodunnits.

I have just finished reading each of these, then watching the various movies associated with them. What amazes me is the ability Agatha Christie has for crafting such interesting plots while peopling them with real people. It is a little like Jane Austen.... the conversation and the people are totally real. And you have to pay attention to what people say..... the silly old lady may be telling exactly the truth, but you have to have ears to hear her. Just wonderful to read.
