I also came down with a case of eye-roll strain from the giant deus ex machina Kostos twist. Not all 30 year olds with families are looking to cheat, I wish that books would stop portraying marriage this way! Teens getting involved with an older, married person is such an overused trope and it's especially frustrating with it isn't used for anything. I was so irritated with Bridget's choices that seemed to stem from nothing more than boredom. BUT, I thought this book contained soooo many overdone tropes. I maybe connected with each character the most this time around. I feel as though the writing has grown a lot since the first book. ![]() I did really enjoy the depth to the characters in this one. ![]() ![]() A broken Indian statuette signals each killing.Īs usual in Christie mysteries, there are plenty of red herrings, especially in the bang-bang third act. Several deaths occur in full view of the audience, testing the designers’ trickery and spectators’ powers of observation. The first dies after consuming a drink laced with potassium cyanide, fulfilling the prophecy: “Ten little Indian boys going out to dine/ One choked his little self and then there were nine.” Others expire from hypodermic syringe, axe, gun, cliff fall, bronze bear clock. In a country house on an island near the coast of Devon, England, guests are eliminated in a style which approximates that of a queer nursery rhyme. The late Dame was near the top of her game in “Ten Little Indians,” which Allentown College Theatre (ACT I) is staging as part of its annual summer Christie fix. Just think: She paved the way for everything from “Theatre of Blood” (Wronged actor kills critics in Shakespearean fashion) to Neil Simon’s “Murder by Death” to “Friday the 13th.” ![]() Agatha Christie, says director Dennis Razze, was the “grandmother” of creative multiple murders in fiction. ![]() ![]() ![]() Our teas have individual subtle flavours which would be overpowered by the instant, coarse, hit of coffee, so we do not sell it.

Winner of Time Out Love London Awards 2014, 2016 & 2018! ![]() ![]() ![]() It's a very female-orientated story, and in film terms, it definitely passes the bechdel test. And the others in the group, a mix of ages and types, are dealt with fairly, I think. ![]() Jean is a great heroine - tough, sensible, kind and human. The Malaysian people, too, are treated with great respect by the author. I found the story-line with the sergeant really touching. Some of the language used to describe them is problematic, but they aren't all stereotypes and villains. It's well paced, the characters are well drawn, the romance is subtle and believable and for a novel written in the 1950's (with the war so recent) the Japanese soldiers are very sensitively depicted. It's a survival story, a wartime drama, and this main section of the story is gripping and immediate. Taken prisoner with a group of other women and children, but miles from the nearest prison camp, the women are forced to walk from place to place, attended by Japanese guards but with no real plan for where they will settle. A Town like Alice is the story of Jean Paget, an English girl who is working as a typist in Malaysia during WW2 when the Japanese invade. ![]() |
