"Hercule Poirot, the Belgian detective with the flamboyant moustache and keen
eye for detail, is one of the most beloved characters in crime fiction. He was
created by British writer Agatha Christie and first arrived on our bookshelves
in 1920. He has since appeared in 33 novels, 51 short stories and two plays.
He has also been depicted in film and television by an array of actors, with
Kenneth Branagh’s latest iteration,
A Haunting in Venice, opening on the big
screen in September 2023.
Poirot’s characteristics have led us to speculate that he may be autistic, even
though Christie never explicitly said so."
