Agatha Christie – The ABC Murders – First Paperback Edition 1948
£165.00
First paperback edition, first printing of The ABC Murders by Agatha Christie, published by Penguin in London, 1948. This is a near fine copy, creasing and slight toning to the spine, rubbing to the soft edges and light shelf-wear to soft cover rear board.
The form of the novel is unusual, combining first-person narrative and third-person narrative. This approach was previously used by Agatha Christie in The Man in the Brown Suit. In The A.B.C. Murders the third-person narrative is supposedly reconstructed by the first-person narrator of the story, Arthur Hastings.
