Interview with Alison Light, a Scholar of Agatha Christie (Among Many Other Subjects)

Published: May 20, 2022, 9:30 p.m.

I took the opportunity to have a somewhat different conversation about Christie than I usually do, with the literary theorist Alison Light, who wrote about Christie as far back as 1991. We talked a whole lot about the middle classes, the notion of \u201csmall c\u201d conservatism, and what it means to be English. Not your usual Christie fare, but I left the conversation with a fresh appreciation of our favorite author, and I hope you do too.
