Thank you, this gives me some perspective. If you look for the original, original title you'll see it's even worse. I know because in my native language it's still the same, it has not changed to any of the new ones.

I also enjoyed this book a lot, but if you allow, how do you feel about the casually thrown around racism in her books? If I recall correctly there is even a moment in which Poirot compares the egyptians to dogs? I am not trying to ruffle some feathers, just an honest questions because this is something that bothers me about her books although I enjoy them otherwise.

Yeah, I guess it's just a representation of the times. Thank you
