A Humble Beginning
Christie was born Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller on September 15, 1890, in Torquay, England. Her childhood was marked by a love of reading and storytelling. Despite her lack of formal education, Christie's imagination soared, and she began writing at a young age.
During World War I, Christie served as a hospital pharmacist. It was during this time that she encountered poisons and their effects, which would later inspire many of her fictional murders.
The Birth of Poirot and Marple
In 1920, Christie published her first novel, "The Mysterious Affair at Styles." This work introduced the world to the renowned detective Hercule Poirot, a brilliant Belgian investigator with a keen eye for detail.
Several years later, in 1930, Christie created Miss Jane Marple, an elderly spinster with an uncanny ability to solve crimes through her knowledge of human nature.
These iconic characters became synonymous with Christie's writing and catapulted her to the forefront of mystery fiction.
Prolific and Prestigious
