British journalist Kate Finnigan has been an Agatha Christie fan since childhood, but hasn't re-read any of her favorites in years. She and host Rebecca Thandi Norman discuss the Miss Marple classic The Body in the Library, what it's like to read Christie's work from a feminist perspective, and why Miss Marple is such a subversie character.
