		<description><![CDATA[Did Manuel Carmague, a famous flautist, die in an accident or was he murdered? Did his death have anything to do with the fact that he was going to marry a woman fifty years younger than himself? Was his daughter returning home after years of separation really his daughter or an impostor? If she was [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;The Murder on the Links&#8221; by Agatha Christie</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Murder on the Links is one of the earliest of Agatha Christie&#8217;s books and the second Hercule Poirot novel. Just like the majority of her early works, it&#8217;s exciting and dynamic, with no time for contemplation. The events happen mainly in France, but, apparently, Hastings can manage French perfectly, because he translates everything into [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Some Lie and Some Die&#8221; by Ruth Rendell</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m continuing to get acquainted with the works of this very original, gloomy, unpredictable and unmistakable English writer of detective novels. Once again I meet Chief Inspector Wexford who is always sixty, no matter what year it is &#8211; and always impossible to deceive, even if it takes him some time to arrive at the [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;At Bertram&#8217;s Hotel&#8221; by Agatha Christie</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;At Bertram&#8217;s Hotel&#8221; is one of the latest works by Agatha Christie and, like some of her other late works, tends to be less exciting, but more contemplative. Most of the book is dedicated to the description of Bertram&#8217;s Hotel, which imitates old England in the second half of the twentieth century to cater to [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Why Didn&#8217;t They Ask Evans&#8221; by Agatha Christie</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This novel by the Queen of the genre is a bit unusual &#8211; not in style, but in the choice of the leading characters. We&#8217;ll see neither Hercule Poirot nor Miss Marple here &#8211; on the contrary, the case will be investigated by two young people without any previous experience in solving mysteries. Bobby Jones [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;The Secret Adversary&#8221; by Agatha Christie</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;The Secret Adversary&#8221; is one of Tommy and Tuppence mysteries &#8211; and the only one from this series I&#8217;ve so far managed to lay my hands on. It&#8217;s a perfect thriller, and I absolutely love it. I read it for the first time thirteen years ago, and now just had to refresh it in memory [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Pygmalion&#8221; by Bernard Shaw</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This book is well known &#8211; I think I can very well call it famous &#8211; and most people know the plot, if not from the book itself then from the film or theatre. I&#8217;ll remind briefly that in the first act we meet a poor flower girl Eliza Doolittle speaking a dreadful dialect of [...]]]></description>
