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".
《长眠不醒》是我看的第三本雷蒙德·钱德勒的小说,前两本分别是短篇集《找麻烦是我的职业》和长篇《漫长的告别》。对钱德勒笔下的私家侦探马洛也是越来越熟悉了。典型的西式观点都说马洛是硬汉,以东方式的眼光来看,马洛更像是一位带着些江湖气的任性游侠。 马洛身上最大的特...
评分雷蒙德·钱德勒无疑是20世纪美国最重要的作家之一,他靠着菲利普·马洛这位史上最具成熟男性魅力的硬汉形象获得了不少荣誉,其中有两个是不得不提的:“犯罪小说的桂冠诗人”与“美国推理作家协会(MWA)票选150年侦探小说创作史上最优秀作家中的第一名”。前者让一位以...
评分读完雷蒙德•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...

评分第一次看雷蒙德·錢德勒的作品,與預期中相去甚遠,所謂「硬漢派」,大意就是摒棄精密的推理,用強硬直接的手段解決問題和揭露真相吧,蘿蔔青菜,各有所愛,這種更像東野圭吾「社會派」的風格實在不是我所喜歡的,3顆星

评分Chandler的语言功底真好。“The night air came drifting in with a kind of stale sweetness that remembered automobile exhausts and the streets of the city.” 读完The Big Sleep有一种绵延的忧伤,从一个侧面反映了二战前夕美国社会的迷惘。
