read And Then There Were None by christie today and 1) i was a little unsatisfied with the epilogue because i wanted the mystery to be more of a "fair" one where the reader could feasibly guess who had done it (and spoilers, but i was completely misled by the killing of my prime suspect and annoyed with the twist at the end, which i'm realizing glass onion copied exactly lol), and 2) i went onto wikipedia to read up more context and the original title was WHAT?
#p#so bizarre. like the changing of the title/song and removal of all references to minstrelry i think also changes the tone#like i think there's smth to talk about re: racism and the creation of fear on the island#via the comparison of all these white British characters with caricatures of blackness#tho also it honestly would make me a lot more reluctant to read it had i known the original title beforehand :|
