The Sittaford Mystery
by Agatha Christie
funny
mysterious
medium-paced
This was a fairly quick interesting little mystery, though the characterisation made more of an impression than the murder plot. Many of the characters were larger than life and stereotypically presented. There are a lot of bossy women, and a lot of snide comments about men being ‘managed’ which haven’t really stood the test of time. I couldn’t really tell if it was serious or a satire of itself.
Because there are so many different characters and everyone is trying to solve the case either independently or as a group it did get quite repetitive as the same facts were gone over again and again. When we did discover the culprit and the motive it kind of fell flat, as it was as interesting as I thought it could have been.
