Summary
RHLSTP Book Club 61 - Agatha Christie: A Very Elusive Woman. Richard starts another Book Club series with a cracker of a guest, TV presenter and Chief Curator of Royal Historic Palaces, Lucy Worsley. They chat about her latest book, just out in paperback, about Agatha Christie. What made Lucy choose this subject? How like Agatha is she? How close did we come to never hearing of Agatha at all? What happened in those 11 days where Agatha went missing in 1926? How important is her story for the history of women, class and race in the 20th Century and how do we define a good or bad mother?
