Condition: Very Good. Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket, 1199 pages, ribbon marker. In Raymond Chandler?s hands, the pulp crime story became a haunting mystery of power and corruption, set against a modern cityscape both lyrical and violent. Now Chandler joins the authoritative Library of America series in a comprehen…sive two-volume set displaying all the facets of his brilliant talent. In his first novel, The Big Sleep (1939), the classic private eye finds his full-fledged form as Philip Marlowe: at once tough, independent, brash, disillusioned, and sensitive?and man of weary honor threading his way (in Chandler?s phrase) ?down these mean streets? among blackmailers, pornographers, and murderers for hire.In Farewell, My Lovely (1940), Chandler?s personal favorite among his novels, Marlowe?s search for a missing woman leads him from shanties and honky-tonks to the highest reaches of power, encountering an array of richly drawn characters. The High Window (1942), about a rare coin that becomes a catalyst by which a hushed-up crime comes back to haunt a wealthy family, is partly a humorous burlesque of pulp fiction. All three novels show Chandler at a peak of verbal inventiveness and storytelling drive. Stories and Early Novels also includes every classic noir story from the 1930s that Chandler did not later incorporate into a novel?thirteen in all, among them such classics as ?Red Wind,? ?Finger Man,? The King in Yellow," and ?Trouble Is My Business.? Drawn from the pages of Black Mask and Dime Detective, these stories show how Chandler adapted the violent conventions of the pulp magazine?with their brisk exposition and rapid-fire dialogue?to his own emerging vision of twentieth-century America. Clean copy. Record # 378974.

Condition: Very Good. Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. With humor, along with an unerring sense of dialogue and the telling details of dress and behavior, Raymond Chandler created a distinctive fictional universe out of the dark side of sunlit Los Angeles. In the process, he transformed both crime writing and the Am…erican language. Written during the war, The Lady in the Lake (1943) takes Philip Marlowe out of the seamy L.A. streets to the deceptive tranquility of the surrounding mountains, as the search for a businessman?s missing wife expands into an elegy of loneliness and loss. The darker tone typical of Chandler?s later fiction is evident in The Little Sister (1949), in which an ambitious starlet, a blackmailer, and a seemingly naïve young woman from Manhattan, Kansas, are the key players in a plot that provides fuel for a bitter indictment of Hollywood and Chandler?s most savage portrayal of his adopted city. The Long Goodbye (1953), his most ambitious and self-revealing novel, uncovers a more anguished resonance in the Marlowe character, in a plot that hinges on the betrayal of friendship and the compromises of middle age. Playback (1958), written originally as a screenplay, is Chandler?s seventh and last novel.A special feature of this volume is Chandler?s long-unavailable screenplay for the film noir classic, Double Indemnity (1944), adapted from James M. Cain?s novel. Written with director Billy Wilder, it is one of the best screenplays in American cinema, masterful in construction and dialogue. Supplementing the volume, and providing a more personal glimpse of Chandler?s personality, is a selection of letters and essays?including ?The Simple Art of Murder,? in which Chandler muses on his pulp roots and on the special qualities of his hero and style. 1076 pages. Clean copy. Record # 378973.
