Dear Helen, How are the things going on? Did something new happen in your life? Having received your letter, I wanted to answer it immediately. But I was working a lot during the last two weeks. So I was pressed for time and did not manage to carry out my intentions. In my country spring has already set. It is quite warm and really sunny all days long. Being at work I always imagine myself strolling down some parks. I wish you could join me! It would be funny! Some days ago my friend advised me to read a very interesting book. I did it and I would like you to know this author. Are you ready to read good litterature? Tell me more about your work and free time. Are you satisfied with all this? What are your plans for this summer? Maybe we will be able to meet one day? 
  Truly yours,
 
Jessica

Волнение, приключения и тайна составляют весь мир фантастики. И вот некоторые из величайших имен в художественной литературе.

Кто был «Королевой преступности»? Агата Кристи, конечно, самый известный в мире писатель-загадка. Агата Кристи родилась в Девоне, Англия в 1890 году, и она создала множество вымышленных детективов. Самыми известными являются Эркюль Пуаро и мисс Марпл. Эркюль Пуаро - бельгийский детектив, известный своей аккуратной внешностью, своей одержимостью порядком и использованием психологии в своих расследованиях преступлений. Мисс Марпл, с другой стороны, не похожа на типичного детектива. На первый взгляд она обычная старушка, которая любит вязание и сплетни, но она может решить самые трудные из тайн и ставит многих преступников за решетку!
