Agatha Christie memorial

Standing at St Martin’s Cross – the intersection of Cranbourn and Great Newport Streets, the memorial – which also marks 60 years and 25,000 performances of her record-breaking long-running London play The Mousetrap – is the work of sculptor Ben Twiston-Davies. It is a bronze statue of the author located at the junction of 6 small streets. The memorial has the shape of a giant book with a depiction of Christie in the middle of it. If you look closely at the cover of this unique book, you will find there also Miss Marple, Hercule Poirot, and other references to the author's bestselling books. shall I tell you one interesting fact: Her novels sold more than two billion copies worldwide, and so far, she has been outsold only by Shakespeare and the Bible! Between 1920 and 1965, she produced at least one book every year!

AG one of the great fictional criminal master or mistress minds. Memorial is in the shape of a book with her life dates and name on the spine. Two of her plays are currently running in London. The Mousetrap at St Martin's Theatre and The Witness for the Prosecution at the County Hall. Nice words and images of two of her great detectives.

The memorial represents a large book with Agatha Christie’s bust in the centre. Perhaps is a small memorial for a writer who has sold over 2 billion books, more than any modern writer. Few minutes away you can find the Mousetrap, the world’s longest running show.

I was delighted to see this memorial to Agatha Christie. I have happy memories of watching Poirot with my grandmother in the early 1990s.

An unique and intricate statue covering the works of Agatha Christie. The statue itself is a book with her head placed in the centre. The more you look at the statue, the more you notice - like the fact that along the bottom are the titles of her various books.

A memorial for one of the most supreme authors, particularly of detective novels, of the 20th century. Beautiful.
