Murder on the Orient Express

Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, written towards the end of the First World War, introduced us to Hercule Poirot, who was to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in over 100 foreign countries. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.

Agatha Christie’s most famous murder mystery, reissued with a striking new cover designed to appeal to the latest generation of Agatha Christie fans and book lovers.

Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of the year, but by the morning it is one passenger fewer. An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside.

Isolated and with a killer in their midst, detective Hercule Poirot must identify the murderer – in case he or she decides to strike again.

这真是个令人着迷的故事。 故事从叙利亚一个火车站开始展开，作者不厌其烦而又无比详细的描述了波洛先生遇见的那些形形色色的旅客:上校和英国来的小姐、“慈善家”、货真价实的公主、伯爵夫妇等等等等。 虽然读者的第一感觉告诉我作者不会无端的撰写，但对于初读阿加莎的我来...  

用户评价

阿婆的英语不是特别难，在能读懂且能读下去的范围之内。原文与英剧之间有一定差别，读起来非常有意思，文中的波罗更加调皮一些，且收尾十分干净利落。

各种角色一言不合就飙法语，看瞎。

太太太太好看啦啊啊啊啊啊阿。

Absolutely stunning. Watched the film a long time ago. Couldn't remember the details. The novel is so much better than the film. I especially enjoyed the ending. Justice has been served and it is not always noble to seek only for the truth. I do hate the kind of novels that good but guilty people are brought by justice.
