Have read my highly anticipated copy of the new Curran book expecting and have mixed emotions about it. The good news: exploring Miss Christie's notes with an insight to how she constructed her stories is a wonderful experience. Her genius for storytelling and her plot intricasies are fascinating to say the lease. The bad news: the two "new" stories are really re-hashes of two I've already read - but then I've read every story/play she has ever written several times over (sans Westmacott). I was hoping for two entirely new and different gems. These are gems, just a bit less glittery because they are really not "new". How lucky Mr. Curran is to have carte blanche from Mr. Pritchard and the Christie estate to have had the opportunity to explore those notebooks at his leisure.
