Un "tour de force" mémorable dans l'histoire du roman policier. Dix personnes isolées sur une île meurent toutes l'une après l'autre. Et puis ... ##And they were none## qui fut le titre original de ce roman à sa parution. Mais alors qui les a tuées? Remarquable. [SDM].

My first Agatha and mystery

4 stars

I've never read any mysteries, so I thought I'd start with the best. Some reviews said this one was it. Of course, I'd heard of Christie.

I expected a great mystery, which this is. But I did not expect how great of a writer she was! The book bounces between the thoughts of 10 people right from the beginning. The repetition of their thoughts only helps to establish the setting. The rest of the book continues this way, bouncing between characters, revealing their fear and guilt. Each character different, yet in the same position. Artfully done.

I read this book years ago, and I really wanted to e-read it. I have read a lot about I think Chris throughout junior high and high school, and after a while they're all kind of same – but this one is definitely not. Re-reading it was really what I needed! I had remembered a lot, but several of the details kind of escaped me; but I remembered the main points and villains and guilty parties. And I still appreciate the thought and morals that went into it. It really is one of her better books!

“There was something magical about an island—the mere word suggested fantasy. You lost touch with the world—an island was a world of its own. A world, perhaps, from which you might never return.”

Agatha Christie is a brilliant writer. This is my second time reading this book, the first time being maybe over a decade ago—enough time at least for me to not remember much at all about this book. There are some perks to having a terrible memory! In this case, I had a few inklings about the characters, but nothing concrete, and thus the murder mystery still managed to be a pleasant surprise.Christie wastes no time in establishing the scene or explaining the characters; she gives brief snatches and glimpses of each, enough to intrigue and perhaps make us question them, but nothing so as to seal the deal before the final act. There are subtle moments where …

Review of 'Dieci piccoli indiani. E non rimase nessuno' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Se anche voi come me, iniziate Agatha Christie da questo giallo, beh... rimarrete estasiati. Dieci piccoli negretti (indiani è palesemente un buonismo dei traduttori)è una piccola gemma che fa leva su tutte le interazioni psicologiche tra 10 persone che si ritrovano su un'isola, in una casa, sapendo che tra loro si annida un assassino. Pian piano il gruppo si restringerà, fino a lasciarci completamente spiazzati con un finale davvero ingegnoso.
