Alexander Livergant is a literary critic, translator, editor-in-chief of the Foreign Literature magazine, professor at the Russian State University for the Humanities. Author of biographies of Rudyard Kipling, Somerset Maugham, Oscar Wilde, Scott Fitzgerald, Henry Miller, Graham Greene, Virginia Woolf, Pelham Grenville Woodhouse. "Agatha Christie: Witness for the Prosecution" is a portrait of the famous, most widely read author of detective novels and short stories. Under the inventive pen of Agatha Christie, the classic detective has reached unprecedented heights; the clues to the crime in her novels are always unpredictable. A long, unusually rich life, the immense work of the creator of the legendary detectives Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple - it would seem, a rare example of well-being. The author of the biography, relying on many materials, including those published for the first time in Russian, paints a slightly different picture: it turns out that the life of the writer was full of the most unexpected twists and sometimes resembled the “twisted” plots of her novels.
