Hardcover. Condición: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Christie, Agatha. The hound of death and other stories. First edition. London: Odhams Press, 1933. Hardback, Good, no dustjacket. Red cloth, a little bumped to top corners, sunned to spine, with a few marks to surfaces. Darker brown lettering and badge to spine, a little faded. Binding strong. 247pp., contents clean and bright. The Hound of Death and Other Stories is a collection of twelve short stories first published in the United Kingdom in October 1933. Unusually, the collection was not published by Christie's regular publishers, William Collins & Sons, but by Odhams Press, and was not available to purchase in shops. Unusually, most of these are tales of fate and the supernatural, with comparatively little detective content. This collection is most notable for the first appearance in a book of Christie's short story "The Witness for the Prosecution". The author subsequently wrote an award-winning play based on this story which has been adapted for the 1957 film and twice for television. RightWayUp Books aims to provide accurate and detailed descriptions. All images are of the actual book for sale - no stock images are ever used. Thank you for looking at this listing.
