Raymond Chandler was born in Chicago in 1888 and moved to England with his family when he was twelve. He attended Dulwich College, Alma Mater to some of the twentieth century's most renowned writers. Returning to America in 1912, he settled in California, worked in a number of jobs, and later married. It was during the Depression era that he seriously turned his hand to writing and his first published story appeared in the pulp magazine Black Mask in 1933, followed six years later by his first novel. The Big Sleep introduced the world to Philip Marlowe, the often imitated but never-bettered hard-boiled private investigator. It is in Marlowe's long shadow that every fictional detective must stand -- and under the influence of Raymond Chandler's addictive prose that every crime author must write.
Raymond Chandler created the fast talking, trouble seeking Californian private eye Philip Marlowe for his first great novel "The Big Sleep" in 1939. Marlowe's entanglement with the Sternwood family - and an attendant cast of colorful underworld figures - is the background to a story reflecting all the tarnished glitter of the great American Dream. The detective's iconic image burns just as brightly in "Farewell My Lovely", on the trail of a missing nightclub crooner. And the inimitable Marlowe is able to prove that trouble really is his business in Raymond Chandler's brilliant epitaph, "The Long Goodbye".
读完雷蒙德•钱德勒的《长眠不醒》后,我大失所望。《漫长的告别》留给我的关于这位“大师的大师”的好印象,也削弱了不少。我开始疑惑:他何以能获得那么高的评价?都不如迈克尔•康纳利。 午饭时因为在饭桌上跟孩子讨论人生目标问题而产生了很大分歧。我觉得环境虽然恶劣...

評分放大镜、烟斗、安乐椅,提及欧美的侦探小说,人们心中往往会浮现出这三件物品。作为古典推理派的经典装备,影响之大,以至于人们在今天的背景下对原著翻拍时,还会不自觉地把这些属于19世纪的元素添加进去。 然而,当福尔摩斯、波洛、布朗神父这一个个出身高贵的睿智头脑,在卷...
評分真像是發生在蘇格蘭的故事 M也是真性情
评分這書的全名應該是”The Big Sleep and Other Novels" 其中的Other Novels就是Farewell,My Lovely和The Long Goodbye 還有個下冊 是另外的三個長篇 沒有買到 讀完第一個 剩下的以後再說吧
评分Chandler的語言功底真好。“The night air came drifting in with a kind of stale sweetness that remembered automobile exhausts and the streets of the city.” 讀完The Big Sleep有一種綿延的憂傷,從一個側麵反映瞭二戰前夕美國社會的迷惘。
