From the Back Cover:
‘Perfectly delightful... colourful, lively and occasionally touching and thought-provoking’
Charles Osborne, Books & Bookmen
‘Good and enjoyable... she has a delightfully light touch’
Marghanita Laski, Country Life
Agatha Christie was already well known as a crime writer when she accompanied her husband, Max Mallowan, to Syria and Iraq in the 1930s. She took enormous interest in all his excavations, and when friends asked what her strange life was like, she decided to answer their questions in this delightful book.
First published in 1946, 'Come, Tell Me How You Live' gives a charming picture of Agatha Christie herself, while also giving insight into some of her most popular novels, including 'Murder in Mesopotamia' and 'Appointment with Death'. It is, as Jacquetta Hawkes concludes in her introduction, “ a pure pleasure to read”.
