De vita

Nata Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller Torcaii die 15 Septembris 1890 patre Americano, matre Anglica. A qua tantum erudita Lutetiae se musicae studiis dabat, quae tamen propter primum bellum mundanum exortum absolvere nequivit. Inter bellum Agatha anno 1914 Archibaldo Christie nupsit. In valetudinario et apud medicamentorum tabernam aegrorum ministrae munere functa multa de venenis didicit.

Anno 1920, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, primam mythistoriam suam, feliciter edidit. Postea duodeseptuaginta mythistorias scripsit. Personae clarissimae ab ea creatae sunt Hercules Poirot et Domina Marple.

Anno 1928 Agatha divortio facto in oriente peregrinata est, ubi multa vidit, quae mythistorias, velut Murder on the Orient Express et Murder in Mesopotamia, concitaverunt. Ibi quoque notitiam archaeologi Maximi Mallowan fecerat, cui mense Septembri 1930 nupsit.

Anno 1971 a regina Elisabeth II Agatha Christie in Ordinem Imperii Britannici accepta est.

Wallingford in oppido die 12 Ianuarii 1976 ictu mortua est.
