Biografie, heb je het meteen in het engels.
Christie, Dame Agatha 1890 -- 1976 Writer. Born Mary Clarissa Agatha Miller, on September 15, 1890, in Torquay, Devon, England. Raised and educated at Ashfield, her parents’ comfortable home, Christie began making up stories as a child. Her mother and her older sister Madge also made up stories: Madge told especially thrilling takes about a fictional, mentally deranged older sister. Agatha married Colonel Archibald Christie in 1914, before World War I, and had one daughter. While her husband was off fighting in World War I, Christie worked as an assistant in a pharmacy, where she learned about poisons. She began to write on a dare from her sister, and produced her first mystery novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles (1920), featuring Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, who would appear in 25 more novels over the next quarter century. The novel found modest success, and she continued writing. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd (1926) became a bestseller, and she enjoyed phenomenal success for the rest of her life. However, about this time, Christie entered a period of emotional turmoil after the death of her mother and a divorce from her first husband. She disappeared for 11 days, eventually turning up at a health spa. Her disappearance was highly publicized and an expensive government search ensued. She was later criticized for not coming forward with her whereabouts earlier. In 1930, Christie married an archeologist, Sir Max Mallowan, and accompanied him on expeditions to the Middle East, which became the setting for many of her novels. She created Miss Marple, one of her most beloved detectives, in 1930. All told, Christie wrote some 80 novels, 30 short story collections and 15 plays, plus six romances under the pen name Mary Westmacott. She was made an honorary dame of the United Kingdom in 1971, and died in 1976, just a year after she killed off Poirot in Curtain: Hercule Poirot’s Last Case. (Poirot received a front page obituary in the New York Times on August 6, 1975.) By the time Christie died, more than 400 million copies of her books had been sold in more than 100 languages. 1920 The Mysterious Affair at Styles 1923 The Murder on the Links 1926 The Murder of Roger Ackroyd 1926 Murder in Mesopotamia 1927 The Big Four 1928 The Mystery of the Blue Train 1929 The Seven Dials Mystery 1930 The Murder at the Vicarage 1932 Peril at End House 1933 Lord Edgeware Dies 1934 Why Didn't They Ask Evans? 1934 Murder on the Orient Express 1936 Cards on the Table 1936 The ABC Murders 1937 Death on the Nile 1938 Appointment with Death 1938 Murder is Easy 1939 Ten Little Niggers 1940 Sad Cypress 1941 Evil Under the Sun 1941 N or M? 1942 The Body in the Library 1943 The Moving Finger 1945 Sparkling Cyanide 1946 The Hollow 1947 The Labours of Hercules 1948 Taken at the Flood 1950 A Murder is Announced 1952 They Do It With Mirrors 1952 Mrs McGinty's Dead 1952 Hickory Dickory Death 1952 The Mousetrap 1953 After the Funeral 1953 Witness for the Prosecution 1957 4.50 from Paddington 1958 Ordeal by Innocence 1959 Cat Among the Pigeons 1960 The Adventure of the Christmas Pudding 1961 The Pale Horse 1962 The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side 1963 The Clocks 1964 A Caribbean Mystery 1965 At Bertram's Hotel 1966 Third Girl 1967 Endless Night 1968 By the Pricking of My Thumbs 1969 Hallowe'en Party 1970 Passenger to Frankfurt 1971 Nemisis 1972 Elephants Can Remember 1973 Postern of Fate 1975 Curtain 1976 Sleeping Murder
