Oxford Bookworms Library Level 2: Agatha Christie, Woman Of Mystery

Classics, modern fiction, non-fiction and more. Written for secondary and adult students the Oxford Bookworms Library has seven reading levels from A1-C1 of the CEFR. What does the name 'Agatha Christie' mean? To many people, it means a book about a murder mystery - a 'whodunnit'. 'I'm reading an Agatha Christie,' people say. 'I'm not sure who the murderer is - I think it's... ' But they are usually wrong, because it is not easy to guess the murderer's namebefore the endof the book. But who was Agatha Christie? What was she like? Was her life quiet and unexciting, or was it full of interest and adventure? Was there a mystery in her life, too? CEFR A2/B1 Word count 5,955"The most consistent of all series in terms of language control, length, and quality of story."  David R. Hill, Director of the Edinburgh Project on Extensive Reading.
