Crooked House
Shakespeare Survey is a yearbook of Shakespeare studies and production. Since 1948 Survey has published the best international scholarship in English and many of its essays have become classics of Shakespeare criticism. Each volume is devoted to a theme, or play, or group of plays; each also contains a section of reviews of the previous year's textual and critical studies and of major British performances. The books are illustrated with a variety of Shakespearean images and production photographs. The current editor of Survey is Peter Holland. The first eighteen volumes were edited by Allardyce Nicoll, numbers 19-33 by Kenneth Muir and numbers 34-52 by Stanley Wells. The virtues of accessible scholarship and a keen interest in performance, from Shakespeare's time to our own, have characterized the journal from the start. For the first time, numbers 1-50 are being reissued in paperback, available separately and as a set.

The Detective Novels of Agatha Christie
The most popular mystery writer of all time concocted a rich recipe of intrigue, character, and setting. All of Agatha Christie's 66 detective novels are covered here in great detail. Each chapter begins with general comments on a novel's geographical and historical setting, identifying current events, fashions, fads and popular interests that relate to the story. A concise plot summary and comprehensive character listing follow, and each novel is discussed within Christie's overall body of work, with an emphasis on the development of themes, narrative technique, and characters over the course of her prolific career. An appendix translates Poirot's French and defines the British idiomatic words and phrases that give Christie's novels so much of their flavor.

A Casa Torta
Nos arredores de Londres há uma mansão com uma inusitada característica: ela é torta. É ali que o milionário octogenário Aristide Leonides mora com a esposa, cinquenta anos mais jovem, além de filhos, noras, netos e uma cunhada, irmã da primeira mulher. Quando a polícia descobre que o patriarca foi envenenado, todos os habitantes da casa se tornam suspeitos, e a discórdia passa a imperar entre os membros da família – sobretudo, olhares desconfiados recaem sobre a jovem viúva. A neta mais velha de Aristide, Sophia, junta-se ao namorado para tentar chegar ao fundo do mistério sobre a morte do avô. Muito mais que um romance policial, A casa torta foi considero pela própria Agatha Christie como um de seus melhores livros.

A Brief Guide To Agatha Christie
Agatha Christie’s 80 novels and short-story collections have sold over 2 billion copies in more than 45 languages, more than any other author. When Christie finally killed off her Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot, the year before she herself died, that ‘detestable, bombastic, tiresome, ego-centric little creep’ in Christie’s words, received a full-page obituary in the New York Times, the only fictional character ever to have done so. From her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, a Poirot mystery, to her last, Sleeping Murder, featuring Miss Marple, Crawford explores Christie’s life and fiction. Cawthorne examines recurring characters, such as Captain Arthur Hastings, Poir...
