NOVELA POLICIALClasificación: N NOVELAS Resumen: Five Little Pigs is a work of detective fiction by Agatha Christie and first published in the US by Dodd, Mead and Company in May 1942 under the title of Murder in Retrospect and in UK by the Collins Crime Club in January 1943 although some sources state that publication occurred in November 1942. The UK first edition carries a copyright date of 1942 and retailed at eight shillings (8/-) while the US edition was priced at $2.00.
The book features Hercule Poirot. The novel is notable as a rigorous attempt to demonstrate Poirot’s repeatedly stated contention that it is possible to solve a mystery purely by reflecting upon the testimony of the participants, and without access to the scene of the crime.
This was the last novel of an especially prolific phase of Christie's work on Poirot. She published thirteen Poirot novels between 1935 and 1942 out of a total of eighteen novels in that period. By contrast, she published only two Poirot novels in the next eight years, indicating the possibility that she was experiencing some frustration with her most popular character.
Five Little Pigs is unusual in the way that the same events are retold from several standpoints.Link: https://biblioteca.stpatrick.edu.uy/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=180 Five little pigs [texto impreso] / Agatha Christie (1890-1976), Autor . - Glasgow : Fontana Books, 1964 . - 192 p.
