Suitable for readers of classic crime fiction and for followers of Philip Marlowe's investigations.
Raymond Thornton Chandler was an American-British novelist and screenwriter. In 1932, at the age of forty-four, Chandler became a detective fiction writer after losing his job as an oil company executive during the Great Depression.
