[edit] Agatha Christie Novel?

I don't recognise the Christie novel referred to - it certainly isn't found on Dame Agatha's own pages, either as a novel, play or short story. Unless someone knows where the reference comes from, I'd suggest deletion. Jon Rob 08:43, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Googling "Agatha Christie Fata Morgana" I find two used copies at Amazon.com. Both are in German. My conclusion: Fata Morgana is the German title of a Miss Marple Agatha Christie mystery. The question: what is the original title? I never delete information without making a simple double-check. --Wetman 12:18, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for the response. A comparison of the German and English pages for Agatha Christie shows that the novel must be They Do It with Mirrors (the only 1952 Miss Marple title). I shall update this page accordingly. :-) Stelio 11:02, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Litfiba

Apparently there's a song by the Italian band Litfiba called Fata Morgana, but given the introductory paragraph to this article, and my lack of knowledge of either the meaning of the song or the year it was released, I won't add it. If anyone's got any information about it, though, go ahead.

A link here from the webpage for Litfiba is sensible. A link here is (?public relations) cruft. It's worth understanding the difference. --Wetman 08:07, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
