About 2008, People’s Literature Publishing House began to compile and publish Agatha’s detective novels one after another. I was one of the beneficiaries of this series (although there was some translation processing and the copyright was interrupted later). It’s a bit of a pity that it was published. This publication has indeed had a very positive impact on the widespread dissemination of Agatha’s works among young readers in China). The first book in my hands was "Cat among Doves". This is a very low-key work by Agatha, so it didn't leave a very deep impression on me after reading it. It was not until I finished reading "Tragedy on the Nile" and "Crime Under the Sun" (this book has always been my favorite) that I began to consciously look for more of her works to read. However, the three most famous works of Agatha's life have all been leaked to me. "Murder on the Orient Express" and "Roger Mystery". I don't know why I came up and opened the back first... It's really a pity. Agatha was a very prolific writer who also wrote and adapted plays during her lifetime. Now many years have passed, and I have read about thirty or forty books intermittently, but there are still a lot of her works that I have not read (including "Curtain", which I have never wanted to read), especially some of her short story collections (which seem to be only (Have watched "Dead Remembrance" and "Death Grass"). Agatha's style as a female writer is relatively distinctive. In terms of character creation and story narration, her language is relatively plain and delicate, soothing and pleasing. I just saw a question comparing the writing techniques of Conan Doyle and Agatha. Many people pointed out that Conan Doyle's narrative skills are very high, and his works are basically full of adventure and some thriller effects, which is very attractive to readers. of. Agatha pays more attention to the process of reasoning, so at this point, Agatha is a more "serious" writer of mystery novels. When writing, Agatha will give a very detailed description of evidence, testimony and other clues, allowing readers to Be a fair participant in the detective process. Conan Doyle is relatively weak at this point, so sometimes although the story is exciting, the matching of clues and results is often confusing. Generally Agatha does not describe crime scenes, and the death may just be narrated by a character or published in a newspaper. The only ones that have ever given me a slightly scary vibe are "The Sleeping Murder" and the painful scene of being poisoned by cyanide in "The Mysterious Case at Styles Manor". Compared with other mystery novel writers, these are absolutely terrible. He belongs to the "moderate group" (I have always found some of the content written by Shoji Shimada very depressing). In addition, Agatha was very fond of poisoning, and the death caused by poisoning was calmer than other methods of depriving life. Poison research is also a field that Agatha is very good at. During the war, she accumulated a lot of knowledge and experience in this area. The deceased in works such as "The White Horse Hotel" and "Silent Witness" all died of poisoning. Although the death scenes cannot shock readers, the clever poisoning techniques are sometimes fascinating.
