DEFINITE ARTICLE
Agatha Christie, the most famous detective story writer of all times, was born in Torquay/Devon in 1890. She never went to school because her parents had her home schooled.
When she was a young woman she went to Paris where she studied Music in order to become a singer. In 1914 she married when World War II broke out, she worked as a hospital dispenser in Torquay.
Her exact knowledge about poisons, which she used later on in her novels, came from that time in that hospital. During that time she began reading detective novels. These stories made such a huge impression on her that she decided to write novels herself.
The Mysterious Affair of Styles, the first of 60 detective novels was published in 1920. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, a novel which revolves around murder and suicide was published in 1926 and is considered a masterpiece of detective fiction.
Agatha Christie, the Queen of Crime, died in 1976. Her books continue to be popular all around the world as they have been translated into more than 100 languages so far.
That’s why it comes as no surprise that to most people “Hercule Poirot” and “Miss Marple” are equal to “Sherlock Holmes.”
Kevin Brooks ''iBoy''
Explain why Tom Harvey is so distraught in this text passage.
Tom Harvey is emotionally distraught because he realizes that his alter ego iBoy has taken away his chance to be a normal 16-year-old boy. (=Thesis) After having severely injured and even killed some of the gang members who had abducted Lucy and him, Tom must acknowledge the fact that he doesn’t really feel remorse or guilt for using his iPowers to fight the Crows. This realization depresses him because it shows that iBoy, his vigilante persona who possesses these iPowers, has turned Tom Harvey into a cold and unfeeling person. A state from which he won’t be able to recover as he finally accepts “He [iBoy] was with me forever.” (p. 243, l. 33)
