A New Beginning

This is the day that i start the process of blogging. The previous article was a mere scribble as i wanted to kick off my 'campaign' as fast as i could. Pardon me for the delays that will occur between two consecutive posts but surely i have my reasons and i'll try to increase the frequency of my posts as time progresses.

Agatha Christie:- A Class Apart

The fact that her books have outsold each and every author(sans Shakespeare(obviously) and Bible(even more obvious), justifies the fact that she is undoubtedly the queen of English literature.
Her flamboyant writing, subtle use of words, yet simple English, has won hearts of millions of people around the world( uhhh, this sounds soo chiched!!).

She had mastered the art of story telling to an extent to which one simply cannot put her books down without finishing them at one go, else they lose their charm.

I, myself, was introduced to Agatha Christie by my brother when i was in Class 7. Fortunately or Unfortunately, he asked me to read a book titled "And then there were none"(or Ten little Indians).
Fortunately because that book changed my perception of mystery/crime novels. Explicitly, I was introduced to the world of crime and I gradually became interested in it.
And, unfortunately because I could not save the best for the last. huh.

Anyways, her poetical power is highly appreciable and praiseworthy. Characters like Hercule Poirot, Parker Pine, Miss Marple are the backbone of her novels without which the novels lose the intensity, drama and excitement(too many adjectives!!!)
[I personally prefer Hercule Poirot anyday if given a choice between the above three. I feel Poirot' stories are more "adventurous"].

Right from "The Mousetrap"(the longest running play in English history) to the masterpiece "Murder of Roger Ackroyd", Agatha Christie had proven that she is undisputed when it comes to writing mystery/crime and will continue to remian undisputed in the years to come.

[P.S:- After reading this, it is my humble request that you move your ass and pick up a Christie asap, otherwise believe me you are missing something big in life, mon ami.]
