Yes he is a very good reader and he has different voices. I I'm perfectly enjoying and falling asleep to his voice but when it comes to voices sir you Frazer. Is that the top of the list fat this guy or girl? I'm not sure who it is on is very good and not like some of them. Who? Can't read mispronounced everything? Why do they do that? Why are they on there? It's so terrible you can't listen to them. Also when you're narrating an english Patricia Wentworth any British book you have to have someone with a British accent it follows so flat. When you they just read along in English the? Ah other English not the queen's English are the kings English now? I suppose I don't know but they always said queen's English. It makes a huge difference.

``There are no people in the world who are as nice to women as sailors.'' How true! Christie knows so much about all types of people. However I get confused by references such as ``a man who was supposed to be far away in South Africa,'' then referencing Victoria Falls which are nowhere near South Africa, and also saying in another place that the falls were in South Africa. Maybe borders have changed since first edition of this.
@PetroicaRodinogaster2647 ай бұрын
Victoria Falls is a waterfall on the Zambezi River in *southern* Africa… When a lot of people say *South Africa* they don’t mean the country -South Africa- they mean the southern part of the continent. Just as people from that country on the continent of North America between Canada and Mexico, call themselves *Americans* when they are actually at most North Americans and in reality, United States-ians. (The only country in the world that have declared themselves to be the most important country on a continent.) When people from African countries speak in general terms of where they are from they may refer to themselves as East or West or South Africans or Central Africans…or even just African- rather than just refer to the specific country they are from. Though of course there are many who do refer to their country. When Christie wrote her books, the British Empire was still in control of many countries, especially in Africa. Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and India were still seen as very much British colonies…outposts from civilisation, (even the USA was not seen as terribly sophisticated by many upper class Brits.) But over all, one thing to remember when reading fiction is, by its very definition- it is not true…therefore what is said can be as far from the truth as the author wants it to be. An author can say black is white, the moon is made of cheese and a waterfall is somewhere it is not, and if they say their writing is fiction, then that is that. Or do you expect that everything written in say, “The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy “, is real and located where it is said to be?? If they are writing a true account of something or a travel brochure, then of course it matters greatly…but there is a big difference. As for sailors being nicer to women than any other people… *I wonder at your actual sanity* …if you think that is true…it’s total rot.

So funny when landlady says "it's not murder, it's only suicide.". She is great comic relief. Christie's characters are a marvel. BTW, wonder who would win the title of champion detective of the world, Sherlock Holmes or Hercule Poirot. I would have to decide for Poirot.
