Her life is fascinating for its mysteries and its passions and, as Lucy Worsley says, "She was thrillingly, scintillatingly modern." She went surfing in Hawaii, she loved fast cars, and she was intrigued by the new science of psychology, which helped her through devastating mental illness.So whydespite all the evidence to the contrarydid Agatha present herself as a retiring Edwardian lady of leisure?She was born in 1890 into a world that had its own rules about what women could and couldn? do. Lucy Worsley? biography is not just of a massively, internationally successful writer. Its also the story of a person who, despite the obstacles of class and gender, became an astonishingly successful working woman.With access to personal letters and papers that have rarely been seen, Lucy Worsley? biography is both authoritative and entertaining and makes us realize what an extraordinary pioneer Agatha Christie wastruly a woman who wrote the twentieth century.
