Christopher Wood
Christopher Wood, aged 29, killed himself on a sunny afternoon in August 1930, at Salisbury station. He sat reading until the train was pulling into the station when he got up and threw himself in front of it, dying instantly. It was a sad and muddled end for a man who nine years before had set out for Paris with a very specific intention -- to become a painter. That he should have killed himself when he had succeeded remains an unsolved mystery. The legacy that Wood left includes, it has been said, "some of the most magical works in modern European painting" and in this, the first biography written about this complex man, Richard Ingleby, drawing extensively on previously unpublished material, tells how he strove from inauspicious beginnings to find his voice as a painter.

The World of Agatha Christie
Denne boken tar for seg livet til Agatha Christie, hennes arbeider og tiden hun levde i. Christie bragte krim-sjangeren videre, og hun la grunnlaget for detektivromanens gullalder. Flere av hennes historier har blitt klassikere. Selv var hun en diskret og dannet kvinne som unngikk oppmerksomhet, men livet hennes var langt fra kjedelig. Hun reiste mye og hun skapte store overskrifter da hun forsvant i 1926. Boka er lett tilgjengelig og har en mengde illustrasjoner. Den henvender seg både til dem som har studert Christie, til dem som har blitt kjent med henne via filmatiseringer og til dem som har gledet seg over hennes spennende bøker.
