Agatha Christie
At 29 Agatha Christie, the most translated writer and best-selling novelist of all time, published her
first book. Today, Christie's novels have sold four billion copies, the third largest after the works of Shakespeare and
the Bible. In addition to being The Guinness Book of World Record’s best selling novelist, she was so influential that
people actually went out and committed crimes based on the ones in her books. So while you may fantasize about murdering
your cheating boyfriend/husband and his lover, remember - Agatha Christie turned those fantasies into a multi-billion
dollar empire.
