Agatha Christie
It has been almost 100 years since Agatha Christie put pen to paper for her very first book, The Mysterious Affair at Styles. Over her career, the iconic British writer published more than 80 novels and short stories and widely is considered the best-selling author of all time, with more than 1 billion English-language copies and another billion in 44 foreign languages sold worldwide.
