"Take all this business about Kenya," said Major Palgrave. "Lots of chaps gabbing away who know nothing about the place! Now I spent fourteen years of my life there.

_ Old Miss Marple inclined her head.
It was a gentle gesture of courtesy. Whilst Major Pal-grave proceeded with the somewhat uninteresting recollections of a lifetime, Miss Marple peacefully pursued her own thoughts. It was a routine with which she was well j acquainted. The locale varied. In the past, it had been i ' predominantly India. Majors, Colonels, Lieutenant-Generals —and a familiar series of words: Simla. Bearers. Tigers. , Chota Hazri—Tiffin. Khitmagars, and so on. With Major Palgrave the terms were slightly different. Safari. Kikuyu. Elephants. Swahili. But the pattern was essentially the same. An elderly man who needed a listener so that he could, in memory, relive days in which he had been happy. Days when his back had been straight, his eyesight keen, his hearing acute. Some of these talkers had been handsome soldierly old boys, some again had been regrettably unattractive ; and Major Palgrave, purple of face, with a glass eye, and the general appearance of a stuffed frog, belonged in the latter category.
Miss Marple had bestowed on all of them the same gentle charity. She had sat attentively, inclining her head from time to time in gentle agreement, thinking her own thoughts and enjoying what there was to enjoy: in this case the deep blue of a Caribbean Sea.
So kind of dear Raymond,—^she was thinking gratefully, so really and truly kind . . . Why he should take so much trouble about his old aunt, she really did not know. Conscience, perhaps; family feeling? Or possibly he was truly fond of her , . .
She thought, on the whole, that he wcw fond of her— he always had been—in a slightly exasperated and contemptuous way! Always trying to bring her up to date. : Sending her books to read. Modem novels. So diflScult— all about such unpleasant people, doing such very odd things

Agatha Christie (1890‒1976) angol írónő, „a krimi koronázatlan királynője”, akinek a nevét az egész világ ismeri. Több mint száz regényt, elbeszélést, színdarabot és rádiójátékot írt. Könyveit milliárdos példányszámban olvassák a világ összes nyelvén, ezzel ő a világirodalom legolvasottabb szerzője, William Shakespeare mellett. Színpadi darabja, a The Mousetrap (Egérfogó) tartja az első előadást követően leghosszabb időn át játszott előadás rekordját, elsőként 1952-ben mutatták be az Ambassadors Theatre-ben Londonban, és még ma is játsszák. Mary Westmacott álnéven romantikus-lélektani regényeket is írt, melyek igazi irodalmi csemegének számítanak.
