About this listen

First released on cassette tape in 1987, these archive recordings feature Joan Hickson as Miss Marple reading Agatha Christie’s The Thirteen Problems.

When the Tuesday Night Club meets in St Mary Mead, the weekly conversation turns to unsolved crimes. The stories of murder and intrigue are often so wicked that they have confounded even Scotland Yard. But there is one person present who has observed enough about human nature to be more than a match for the most perspicacious investigator…

Recorded more than 35 years ago while the BBC was filming the series Miss Marple, these thirteen short stories were read by Joan Hickson when she was 80 years old and capture the warmth and nostalgia of a bygone age.

Due to the archival nature of these recordings, the quality may vary. Newer recordings of The Thirteen Problems, read by Juliet Stevenson, are also available.

Highly entertaining Miss Marple book with a whole range of diverse problems being presented for Miss Marple (and the listener) to attempt to solve...although however diverse the problems might be they obviously have their solution in village life!

I loved the stories. The only problem was that the last four stories were the same as the first four. Disappointed as I was looking forward to more great stories from Agatha Christie.

More like The Nine Problems...

If you could sum up The Thirteen Problems in three words, what would they be?

Thirteen well structured short mysteries.

What other book might you compare The Thirteen Problems to, and why?

Death By Drowning-same series.

What about Joan Hickson’s performance did you like?

Her diction and her ability to read the characters as they were written-without an absurd sense of 'modern irony'.

A super set of stories narrated by the best.

Joan Hickson - marvellous as always

Always good stories but there needs to be a bit of a gap between the announcement of the next story as got. Infused a couple of times.

Enjoyable short stories

These are great stories read by one of the best Miss Maples herself.
Only negative is that there needs to be a short pause between the end of one account and the title of the next. As it is currently it sounds like the last person speaking in a story suddenly says something entirely random.

Classic stories of perspicacity

Your told the stories in such a way that you can pretend to be a member of the Tuesday night club. Can you work out what happened, before Miss Marple tells you the answer.

Are you as good as Miss Marple?
