5.0 out of 5 stars The king of crime, 20 Aug 2003
By Russel D. Mclean "Russel D McLean" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Raymond Chandler Speaking (Paperback)
Raymond Chandler is one of the most influential crime writers of the twentieth century. Literate, hardboiled and transcending the traditional image of the pulp writers, he created some of the most memorable crime fiction of his era. This book collects letters and correspondence from Chandler. Although I am not normally a fan of letter collections, this book is an engrossing read, adding not only to my image of Chandler, but also to my understanding of his writings. For any fan of crime fiction, for any fan of biography, for anyone who loves these "collected letters" anthologies, in fact for anyone who enjoys a good read, this collection of revealing, witty and fascinating correspondence is an essential purchase.
