Sobre este artículo
Boston / Cambridge: Houghton Mifflin Company / The Riverside Press, 1964. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 9x6x1. First edition, first state jacket ($5.50 price on flap). Near fine in very good jacket. Jacket edges a bit rubbed with 1/2 inch closed tear and associated crease along top edge. 1964 Hard Cover. xi, 332 pp. "Killer in the Rain collects together eight classic short stories by Raymond Chandler. It was in the pulp detective magazines of the 1930s that Raymond Chandler's definitive take on the hard-boiled detective story first appeared. Here then, from the well-thumbed pages of 'Black Mask' and 'Dime Detective Magazine', are eight of his finest stories including 'The Man Who Liked Dogs', 'The Lady in the Lake' and 'Bay City Blues'. Sharper than a hoodlum's switchblade, more exciting than an unexpected red-head and stronger than a double shot of whisky, they are packed full of the punchy poetry and laconic wit that makes Chandler the undisputed master of his genre." Contents: Introduction; Killer in the Rain; The Man Who Liked Dogs; The Curtain; Try the Girl; Mandarin's Jade; Bay City Blues; The Lady in the Lake; No Crime in the Mountains.
