“Christie Interview: The Morality of Edith’s Actions”
In this activity, students will demonstrate their understanding of Christie’s perspective on evil by writing an interview in which Christie evaluates the morality of Edith’s actions in killing Josephine.
After reading Crooked House, you should have a good idea of how Agatha Christie viewed evil. Not everyone would agree with her perspective, however. Imagine that you are a journalist interviewing Christie for an article about Crooked House and its perspective on evil. You are particularly interested in hearing Christie’s opinions about Edith’s choice to kill herself and Josephine at the end of the book. For this activity, you will write an interview-style article that is about two pages in which you explore Christie’s interpretation of Edith’s actions.
Your article should satisfy the following criteria:
