Author of the biography Agatha Christie: A Mysterious Life (2007), Laura Thompson, discusses the fabulous Marple mystery set in a small English village, The Moving Finger. She and host Rebecca Thandi Norman talk about Christie's coded-LGBTQ+ characters, which parts of the book they "buy" (and which they don't!), and whether you can enjoy Christies if the ending has been spoiled.See Laura Thompson's website:http://www.laurathompson.co.uk/ Read Agatha Christie: A Mysterious Lifehttps://bookshop.org/a/87919/9781681776538Read The Last Landlady: An English Memoirhttps://bookshop.org/a/87919/9781783528455Next episode, we're reading Evil Under the Sunhttps://bookshop.org/a/87919/9780062073938Have feedback for us?
