Kraljica krimića i majka „cosy mysteries“, vrhunska spisateljica i žena sa beskrajnom inspiracijom od sada je ponovno dostupna i na našem tržištu u predivnom izdanju @novella_knjige. U planu je cijela kolekcija od 60 djela, a na nama je „samo“ da ih dočekamo i uživamo.
Ubojstvo u Orient Expressu inspirirano je njezinim putovanjima, a sam zločin u kojem je stradala Daisy stvarnim događajem. O uspjehu same knjige govore i mnoge adaptacije koje je doživjela – kazalište, film, a 2006. čak i video igrica.
Detektiv Hercule Poirot vraća se sa odmora poznatim vlakom „Orient Express“ koji je za ovo doba godine neobično pun. Kada neposredno nakon Vinkovaca otkriju tijelo poznatog tajkuna izbodeno više od 10 puta, putovanje koje je trebalo biti mirno i ugodno pretvara se u istragu ubojstva…
Davno sam ju čitala, toliko davno da sam bila uvjerena da ju nisam čitala, a onda mi se polako kako je radnja odmicala počela probijati u sjećanje pa sam zavirila na svoj GR i shvatila da ju ipak jesam već čitala. No to nije nimalo umanjilo moje uživanje, a pogotovo osjećaje koje izazove spominjanje moje zemlje u nekoj stranoj knjizi. I to još ovakvoj! Radnja koja vam drži pažnju od prve do zadnje stranice, sitnice koje vam pomažu razotkriti ubojicu, a koje ja nikada ne ulovim, i izrazito simpatičan detektiv dovoljan su razlog da se ove nedjelje uhvatite Agathe. Vjerujte mi oduševiti će vas.

Murder on the Orient Express – Agatha Christie
The queen of crime novels and the mother of “cosy mysteries”, a bestseller writer and a woman of endless inspiration is now available on our market again in this beautiful edition by @novella A whole collection of 60 works is planned, and it’s up to us “only” to welcome and enjoy them.
Murder on the Orient Express was inspired by her travels, and the crime in which Daisy was killed was a true crime. The success of the book itself is also seen in the many adaptations it has undergone – theater, film, and in 2006 even a video game.
Detective Hercule Poirot returns from vacation on the famous “Orient Express” train, which is unusually full for this time of year. When, right after Vinkovci, the body of a famous tycoon is discovered stabbed more than 10 times, a journey that was supposed to be peaceful and pleasant turns into a murder investigation…
I read it a long time ago, so long ago that I was convinced that I hadn’t read it yet, and then slowly as the plot progressed, it started to dawn on me, so I peeked at my GR and realized that I had already read it. But that didn’t diminish my enjoyment at all, especially the feelings that are evoked by the mention of my country in a foreign book. And especially in a book like this! A plot that keeps your attention from the first to the last page, little things that help you uncover the murderer, which I never catch, and an extremely likable detective are enough reasons to catch up with Agatha this Sunday. Trust me, you will not regret it.
