For the first time in Ukrainian! "A Separation in Spring is a psychological novel about married life.

One of six psychological novels that Christie, in her words, "wrote as she wanted to write, and for an artist there is no greater pleasure than that."

Themes:

Relationships between men and women, love, separation.

About the book:

Lady Joan, the main character of the novel, is forced to be alone with her most intimate thoughts due to the unfavourable weather. On the edge of civilisation in an endless desert, she learns, as if on a retreat, about things she did not understand and did not want to understand, including herself. Rethinking her feelings and her own life, especially her relationships with her family, changes her attitude towards those around her and those who influenced the usual unhurried course of events that have been brought to mind. Lady Joan wanted to see an unknown distant world on this journey, to visit her daughter in Baghdad, to escape from her routine, but in the end, are the unexpected just unexpected, not a pattern?

Who is the book for:

For those who love quality psychological literature, fans of Agatha Christie's work and her lesser-known works.

The highlight of the book:

• The book is about each of us.

• For the first time in Ukraine and in Ukrainian. Translated by the outstanding Ukrainian translator Igor Astapenko.

• Permission to print in Ukraine was granted by Agatha Christie's grandson and his company @Agatha Cristie LTD.

• The author, who was used to being loved for her detective stories, was ashamed to openly sign books with her real name: she thought she would be judged. And the works, according to critics, have more literary value than her works about crime. They are action-packed. Instructive. Those that interfere with the reader's personal life. If you get your hands on the book, you won't be able to put it down unread."

• Special design - one of three books, a very nice cover in the style of Victorian wallpaper. A set of three novels is offered in a gift box.

Quotes from the book:

– "No, I'm going back to Baghdad to my husband.
– Do you have a husband?"
Joanna was sincerely surprised that such a worn-out woman, into whom Blanche had turned,... still had such a luxury – a real living man."

"In fact, life is a sequence of small dramas."

"If a person doesn't have the opportunity to do what they like, then they are only half a person."

"Joan laughed at this, but at the same time she was pleased. When you do or say something, you always expect someone to appreciate it. Sometimes she asked herself if her family was too used to the perfect household order and her personal care and dedication."
