Lord Edgware Dies by Agatha Christie
“One cannot be interested in crime without being interested in psychology. It is not the mere act of killing, it is what lies behind it that appeals to the expert.”

I am astonished at the fact David Suchet had played Inspector Japp prior to his later portrayal of Poirot himself.

A review of Lord Edgware Dies by Agatha Christie – 230912 Initially serialized in The American Magazine under the title of Thirteen for Dinner, Lord Edgware Dies, the ninth in her Hercule Poirot series published in 1933, sees Christie in fine form.

Lord Edgware Dies by Agatha Christie
Tumblr media
Summary: Well the title already gives out the setting of the book. So basically we will follow the mystery surrounding the death Lord Edgware. His wife are the prime suspect at the beginning of the book. As stated at the back of the book, his wife wanted to get rid of him. But she has a strong alibis hence who is the killer? and why?
💥SPOILER!!💥
Review (My personal opinion): 4/5 for me. The story start off strong and pull me into complete interest. The first chapter explained the desires of Jane Wilkinson a.k.a Lady Edgware to get rid of Lord Edgware, she even ask Poirot to help her to divorce her husband so she could marry other man; a Duke. The first chapter also introduced us to various character that play vital role in the book such as Bryan Martin, Carlotta Adams, Captain Marsh, etc. TBH, as I read the book I thought Bryan Martin was the murderer because he was portrayed as man with anxiety and nervousness throughout the book, there are many evidence pointed towards him and Captain Marsh as the murderer. But I was deceived by Agatha clever writing. In my opinion death of Carlotta was a pity and sad because she was such a innocent individual. The murderer is smart is covering their tracks and act as a clueless and no-brainer individual. Personally, Lord Edgware Dies enter top 10 of my Agatha's book.
note: whenever I read Poirot series, I always get frustrated with Hastings cluelessness and oblivion. Nevertheless, his character sometimes provide ideas into Poirot's little grey cells.

"No human being should learn from another. Each individual should develop his own powers to the utmost, not try to imitate those of someone else. I do not wish you to be a second and inferior Poirot. I wish you to be the supreme Hastings."

Well, I'm not sure why I did that, but I did, and now it's done and I can move on with my life. I reread all the Poirot novels. I also ranked them.
I'll write them out here for the benefit of anyone who doesn't want to squint at a small low res image or who can't see the image. Within each tier they are in random order.
S (sublime) - The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, Murder in Mesopotamia
A (highly enjoyable) - Murder on the Orient Express, Poirot Investigates, Death on the Nile, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, Third Girl, Five Little Pigs, Dumb Witness, Sad Cypress
B (moderately amusing) - The Murder on the Links, Peril at End House, Evil Under the Sun, Lord Edgware Dies, Death in the Clouds, After the Funeral, The Clocks, Mrs McGinty's Dead, Dead Man's Folly, The Hollow
C (meh) - Three Act Tragedy, The ABC Murders, Cards on the Table, Murder on the Mews, One Two Buckle My Shoe, Appointment with Death, Poirot's Early Cases, The Adventure of the Christmas Pudding, Hickory Dickory Dock, Elephants Remember, Curtain, Hercule Poirot's Christmas, Taken at the Flood, Cat Among the Pidgeons, Hallowe'en Party
D (literally unreadable) - The Big Four, The Labours of Hercules, The Mystery of the Blue Train
D is the only objective tier as these are just the ones I couldn't finish. C may well contain books that are worse overall but they were compelling enough for me to finish them, so. Everything else is subjective. There are a few controversial picks - some of the most beloved novels are meh to me. And I had a few standouts among Christie's later work, which have not entered the public consciousness unlike many of the earlier installments. Third Girl I'll call out particularly as a fascinating example of the Christie formula working in the 1960s.
Reading them chronologically was fascinating as an account of how much Britain and the world changed between the 1910s and 1980s. I probably have a few posts worth of thoughts about the later day Poirots, which I will write up at some point.
Anyway, that's all, I have escaped, it's over.
