Sobre este artículo
New York:: Atlantic Monthly Press,, (1997). Hardcover first edition -. Fine in fine dust jacket.. First printing. A book based on access to Chandler's papers and previously unrecorded accounts by those who knew Chandler,one which "assesses the impact an English public school education had on this most American of writers, the man who turned hard-boiled detective stories into literature with novels like 'The Big Sleep'. The author is equally acute in discussing Chandler's years as an oil executive in Los Angeles, his marriage to a woman 18 years his senior, his alcoholism, and the Philip Marlowe mysteries that made him rich and famous in middle age. A sympathetic, unflinching look at a gifted artist and very unhappy man." Photographs. Notes, index. x, 310 pp.
