      „Řešení každé záhady leží v malých šedých buňkách mozku,“ tvrdí drobný mužíček s vejčitou hlavou, pečlivě pěstěným knírem a svérázným stylem oblékání i chování. Zároveň se však neostýchá dodat: „Jmenuji se Hercule Poirot a jsem asi nejlepší detektiv na světě.“ Je neskromný, puntičkářský, pedantský... a geniální. Lze se o tom přesvědčit jak ve více než 50 románových či povídkových příbězích, tak v této knize shrnující vše podstatné, co kdy Poirot prohlásil – mimo jiné o sobě, o jídle a pití, angličtině, ženách, myšlení zločince či o svém drahém příteli Hastingsovi. Sem tam humorné, často hluboké a vždy odvážné a odhalující – takové jsou Poirotovy výroky, které nám umožní nahlédnout do duše této postavy a zároveň se přesvědčit, kolik důvtipu, bystrosti a moudra do ní vložila její autorka Agatha Christie, od jejíhož narození uplynulo v roce 2015 už 125 let.
