This is more like a 2.5 stars -- better than just okay but not really overly likable. Perhaps if it weren't my first Marple and only my third Christie my opinion would be higher, but it just felt underwhelming.

While maybe not up to her typical form, Christie still manages to craft an incredibly smooth narrative with rich characters. Canon Pennyfather was charmingly hilarious and particularly memorable in the midst of this large cast. I did find myself facing some confusion about which character...more

I feel bad for not liking this book, so to make myself feel better, I'm going to brainstorm the reasons why.
1) I don't think I've ever read a proper mystery before, much less an Agatha Christie mystery, so I feel I was a bit lacking in my prior knowledge of the author's style.
2) Maybe I should have read this book in one sitting, because I didn't really follow it too well. Maybe I forgot important overheard conversations, etc., but the main reason I didn't enjoy the book is because I pretty much...more

In the Joan Acocella article I referenced several months ago, Joan writes that Agatha did not exactly finish strong, with her best work written at the beginning and during the middle of her career. I agree, and am forced to suggest that "At Bertram's Hotel" is a minor work at best. Or perhaps I should suggest instead that it is an "interesting" work. It does not quicken one's pulse, and one isn't compelled to turn the page -- I found myself putting it down far more often than, say, "Pocket Full...more

Recently though, I came across this novel at a second-hand bookstore and, although I consider myself a Poirot partisan, this Miss Marple mystery has quickly threatened the standing of Mr Ackroyd on my shelf. From the delicious first chapter of the novel where she introduces the hotel itself with the care any other author would reserve for a major character to the painstaking portraits she paints of the many compelling personalities she peoples this story with (with the skill of an expert miniaturist), she simply enchants this reader with her magical, silken noose of suspense.

Excerpts:
The first paragraphs
"In the heart of the West End, there are many quiet pockets, unknown to almost all but taxi drivers who traverse them with expert knowledge, and arrive triumphantly thereby at Park Lane, Berkeley Square or South Audley Street.

If you turn off on an unpretentious street from the Park, and turn left and right once or twice, you will find yourself in a quiet street with Bertram's Hotel on the right hand side. Bertram's Hotel has been there a long time. During the war, houses were demolished on the right of it, and a little farther down on the left of it, but Bertram's itself remained unscathed. Naturally it could not escape being, as house agents would say, scratched, bruised and marked, but by the expenditure of only a reasonable amount of money it was restored to its original condition. By 1955 it looked precisely as it had looked in 1939 -- dignified, unostentatious, and quietly expensive.

Such was Bertram's, patronized over a long stretch of years by the higher echelons of the clergy, dowager ladies of the aristocracy up from the country, girls on their way home for the holidays from expensive finishing schools. ('So few places where a girl can stay alone in London but of course it is quite all right at Bertram's. We have stayed there for years.')

There had, of course, been many other hotels on the model of Bertram's. Some still existed, but nearly all had felt the wind of change. They had had necessarily to modernize themselves, to cater for a different clientele. Bertram's, too, had had to change, but it had been done so cleverly that it was not at all apparent at the first casual glance."

From Chapter 2
"There were people who would have smiled in gentle derision at this pronouncement on the part of an old-fashioned lady who could hardly be expected to be an authority on nymphomania, and indeed it was not a word that Miss Marple would have used--her own phrase would have been 'always too fond of men.' But Lady Selina accepted her opinion as a confirmation of her own.

"'There have been a lot of men in her life,' she pointed out.

"'Oh yes, but I should say, wouldn't you, that men were an adventure to her, not a need?'"(less)

I'm always grateful when I find a Miss Marple book where the title sleuth gets to actually be present for about half the story - this one, in fact, featured Miss Marple more than any of her other mysteries I've read. She still disappears for lengthy amounts of time, but this time it actually feels purposeful. Miss Marple doesn't appear at certain points because the other characters are busy doing important things, things that Miss Marple can't be present for because then the mystery would be ove...more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. I love At Bertram's Hotel beyond all reason. Objectively, it is probably not Dame Agatha's strongest mystery; the murder comes into it quite late, as the first two-thirds or so is occupied with a series of robberies and the disappearance of an elderly clergyman. The murder, when it does come, has a clever enough twist, but for those readers who expect every Agatha to be murder-centric, it may not satisfy.

Objectively, it is probably not Dame Agatha's strongest mystery; the murder comes into it quite late, as the first two-thirds or so is occupied with a series of robberies and the disappearance of an elderly clergyman. The murder, when it does come, has a clever enough twist, but for those readers who expect every Agatha to be murder-centric, it may not satisfy.

However, the solution isn't the reason I love this novel--it is the combination of Miss Marple and the atmosphere. Bertram's Hotel is, I think I recall, inspired by Brown's Hotel in London. I have been there and had their famous afternoon tea, and I agree wholeheartedly with Christie that it is like stepping back in time. The cleverest thing about this novel is that Christie, with her skeptical mind, felt as I did that Brown's/Bertram's is almost too good to be true--so she imagines that it IS too good to be true and that it is all an elaborate front for a crime syndicate! I just think that if you've ever been, not necessarily even to Brown's, but to any hotel or B&B that specializes in Victorian or Edwardian charm, you can't help loving this cheeky premise.

I also think this novel is the clearest possible example of how Christie differs from "cozy" authors, up to and including contemporary ones, who deal in nostalgia. Miss Marple is emphatically not nostalgic. She appreciates the past but does not try to recapture it, which is why Bertram's immediately rings false to her. Perhaps the old days were better in some regards, but it is no use clinging to them. Christie always wrote in the present day, other than her one foray into historical fiction with Death Comes as the End. Possibly my favorite thing about her novels is that they combine first-rate mystery with 50+ years of British social history; if you read her novels in order, you can see an evolving society, chronicled without undue sentiment. Yes, the narrative voice ages with the author and the later novels express some wonder at the "young people" of the 1960s and '70s, but Christie never stopped working to stay current...and to craft mysteries suitable to the time and place. At Bertram's Hotel is the perfect balance of "cozy" atmosphere--surely this novel takes the prize for highest number of teas served!--and deconstruction of it. Not at all an easy feat to achieve, and I never seem to tire of re-reading it.(less)

3.5

This was the first Jane Marple novel that I actual read and it was very different from Christie's Poirot novels. In comparison to the Poirot novel, Marples, is hardly seen in the novel. I was expecting her to be doing the sleuthing and investigating, but was highly disappointed when the focus was on the police. Basically her role in the book is the "nosy neighbor", where she's just at the right place at the right time.

The novel starts out at the Bertram Hotel, a quaint and old-fashioned hote...more

First read in 1975.

A very nostalgic book, as Jane Marple returns to Bertram's Hotel in London, where she once stayed as a young girl - despite two World Wars, Bertram's Edwardian elegance seems completely unchanged and, as Miss Marple reflects, almost too good to be true . . .

Christie is still in good form in this 1965 novel, successfully juggling two plots, and does a great job in the opening chapter of setting up the mis-en-scene of Bertram's Hotel in all its splendor and efficiency. I rememb...more

I have always liked episodes of `Hercule Poirot`on the T.V. but never read any books by the great creator of poirot; Agatha Christie. And so I got this audiobook to see if her writing was as good as the T.V. episodes. Àt Bertrams Hotel`is a story that ciculates around Christie`s other great creation; Miss Marple.

Jane Marple, hat von ihrem Neffen, einem Schriftsteller, einen Aufenthalt in Bertrams Hotel in London geschenkt bekommen. Miss Marple verbindet glückliche Erinnerungen mit diesem Hotel, in welchem sie einmal als junges Mädchen wohnte und möchte noch einmal in Erinnerungen schwelgen. Zu ihrer großen Überraschung und Zufriedenheit findet sie das Hotel nahezu unverändert vor. Doch der Scheint trügt. Schon bald hat sie das Gefühl, dass etwas nicht stimmt. Da wäre die junge Erbin Elvira Blake mit ihrem Vormund Colonel Luscombe, die sich fragt, wer erbt, wenn sie stirbt. Dann verschwindet der zerstreute Priester Kanonikus Pennyfather, ein Postzug wird überfallen und irgendwie laufen alle Fäden in Bertrams Hotel zusammen.

Dieses Hörspiel aus dem Jahr 1995 basiert auf dem gleichnamigen Kriminalroman von Agatha Christie aus dem Jahr 1965. Obwohl es Miss Maples zehnter Fall ist, ist dieser in sich abgeschlossen, und man muss die anderen Fälle nicht kennen, man muss nicht einmal die Figuren wirklich kennen.
Wer einen wirklich ermittelten Kriminalfall erwartet wird enttäuscht werden. Das Hörspiel erzählt eher, was verschiedenen Gäste von Bertrams Hotel so machen, Dinge, die Miss Maple nicht wissen kann. Es gibt einige Szenen aus Miss Maples Sicht, einige aus Sicht anderer Protagonisten und dann ermitteln noch zwei Polizisten. Die Auflösung ist konfus, an den Haaren herbeigezogen, unnötig kompliziert und unglaubwürdig und dennoch oder vielleicht deswegen, bleibt es bis zum Ende Spannend, denn wie üblich werden essentielle Informationen bis zum Showdown zurückgehalte und dann aus dem Ärmel geschüttelt.
Die Sprecher sind sehr gut, so wie man das von BBC Hörspielen auch erwartet. Die Klangkulisse ist stimmig und unterstützend, der Soundtrack unauffällig und unaufdringlich. Die Sprecher sprechen wunderbares britisch Englisch, dem man problemlos folgen kann.

Fazit: Tolles Hörspiel basierend auf einem mittelmäßigen, überkonstruierten, wenn auch klassischem Kriminalroman.

Almost a single session read even for a slow coach like me. There is a perverse charm in Christie, a naive quality to her stories that intrigues me as much as the mystery itself. Despite the most convoluted of plots, some outrageous coincidences and one or two hilariously unlikely characters, everything is so certain, so black and white as if the world could not exist in any way other than it does in her book.
