AGATHA CHRISTIE: A VERY ELUSIVE WOMAN

Why did Agatha Christie spend her career pretending that she was 'just' an ordinary housewife, when clearly she wasn't? She was born in 1890 into a world which had its own rules about what women could and couldn't do. Lucy Worsley's biography is not just of a massively, internationally successful writer. It's also the story of a person who, despite the obstacles of class and gender, became an astonishingly successful working woman. Agatha's life is fascinating for its mysteries and its passion.

IF WALLS COULD TALK

Why did the flushing toilet take two centuries to catch on? Why did medieval people sleep sitting up? Why did gas lighting cause Victorian ladies to faint? Why, for centuries, did people fear fruit? All these questions - and more - are answered in this truly intimate history of the home.
