Recensioni
What saves this novel, for me, is the surprise ending. The problem is I don't read novels solely for their endings.
If you've somehow managed to avoid spoilers for this book, despite the numerous film and stage adaptations (many of which infamously change the ending, while only the Russians attempt to make it MORE bleak!), read this now before someone spoils it for you.
Ten people from different walks of life are lured to an island under false pretenses, cut off from the outside world, and then told startling secrets about each other. When one of their number dies in a possible accident, suspicion is rife. It sounds cliched, and nowadays it is (alright, it wasn't hugely surprising back then either). But as the story goes on, Christie continues to challenge us - and herself - in an attempt to write the perfect murder mystery.
Don't get me wrong - Christie is a storyteller, not a literary giant. I'm not saying this is Thomas Hardy here, but it's a seminal work of detective fiction (well... "detective" fiction, in this case) for anyone who is even remotely interested in the genre.
What happens whne the guests at guesthouse start dying one by one?
it was quite morbid in my opinion but for some reason i didn't really mind, and it was also beautiful in a really twisted way. she just has this unique way of writing that i haven't encountered before, it's what makes me love her books so much. and also the emotions she manages to make me feel?? which really shouldn't be a thing because this is mystery. but still it made me emotional. and then it left me speechless.
now my only question is: is every mystery book like this or is this just her? and also do people ever correctly guess the ending. is that a thing. i mean there must be hints in the book?? i think?? but i just can't imagine how smart you have to be in order to guess it.
in conclusion, this is my favourite book and i don't think anything will ever top this. and i would urge everyone to read agatha christie like. right now.
