An Armchair Guide to Agatha Christie's England

An English-language online lecture dedicated to the 50th anniversary of Agatha Christie's death. The lecture explores English locations that shaped Christie's work and the golden age of detective fiction.

The lecture covers Christie's childhood home and Greenway - her holiday residence on the banks of the River Dart in Devon - as well as the Harrogate Hotel, known both for its annual crime fiction festival and Christie's own mysterious 11-day disappearance. Additionally, the lecture offers a preview of the British Library's major exhibition, opening in October, which showcases rare manuscripts and personal artefacts.
