But they come out early, when the wide cracked sidewalks are empty and still have dew on them. —Raymond Chandler, The High Window Anthony Hernandez, Studio City? It is the sort of passage you can only marvel at — the sort you transcribe simply for the pleasure of transcribing, to feel the sensation of the language through your own suddenly humbled hand. Lots of people have written about Los Angeles, but none quite as sharply, richly, deliciously or bitterly as Raymond Chandler at his best. Novelist and recent Chandler biographer Judith Freeman is convinced it stems from the fact that he saw the city from no less than three dozen different vantage points, having moved 36 times in the 46 years he spent in Southern California.

July 19, 1998, Sund ay Section: Arts and Leisure Desk Stalking Raymond Chandler's Spirit By TOM STOPPARD LOOKING downstream from this window over the Thames at Chelsea I can almost see Swan Walk, where Raymond Chandler was living in the summer of 1958 when he started work on what turned out to be his last Ph ilip Marlowe story, ''Poodle Springs.'' I did not know this when I was wo rking on the movie of the book, and in fact did not discover it until the other day, when I looked up ''Poodle Springs'' in the 1997 biography of Chandler by To m Hiney. Swan Walk? I only have to raise my head! Come to think of it, just at the time when the white pa ges of the shooting script were turning all the colors of the rewrite spectrum u nder the irresistibly courteous pressure from the director, Bob Rafelson, I gave a party in the Chelsea Physic Garden where the mulberry trees throw their after noon shadow into Swan Walk itself. I must have parked my car outside Chandler's house. The coincidence seems pregnant with significance, until overtaken by the yet more disturbing realization of its complete meaninglessness. Chandler had to be somewhere when he began writing ''Poodle Springs.'' He liked London. He preferred Chelsea to St. John's Wood, where he had alighted on a previous vis it. For a bookish chap, Swan Walk, a quiet one-sided lane of four-story brick ho uses just off the Embankment, was as likely as anywhere. Exactly 40 years earlier, in 1918, Osbert Sitwell took a lease on No. 5, three doors away, and g ave literary dinner parties there with his sister, Edith, acting as hostess. It would be nice if Chandler knew that.

Chandlerisms A collection of similes, one-liners, and turns of phrase that could be written only by Raymond Chandler. Life and works: A Raymond Chandler Chronology The Big Sleep Of Raymond Chandler's seven detective novels, his first, The Big Sleep (1939) , is arguably his best. The story is structurally and thematically unified, the characters fully developed, and the style distinctive and sharp. When the novel was published, Chandler was fifty years old. He had already spent five years as a full-time writer of short stories and novellas for the pulp fiction magazine market, and during this apprenticeship had mastered his technique. Although it would be years before the novel received the critical recognition it deserved, the publication of The Big Sleep was a landmark in the history of the American hard-boiled detective novel. In the years that followed, Chandler's style and technique would be widely admired and imitated; his work would help establish the conventions of the genre that persist (in both detective novels and movies) to this day.

Raymond Chandler is the most influential mystery writer since Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. His leading advocates, including W. H.

He first came to write detective stories in 1933 with the support of his wife. Blackmailers Don't Shoot , which took five months to write, was published by Black Mask, the leading crime pulp of its time which also published Dashiell Hammett 's stories. Writing proved lucrative, and was something Chandler enjoyed, so he continued. His character Philip Marlowe, a 38-year-old P.I., a man of honor and a modern day knight with a college education, first appeared in the story Killer in the Rain , which later formed part of Chandler's first novel The Big Sleep (1939), and he turned to screenwriting in 1943.

ISBN 0-8131-9042-8. 336 pp. Film noir and hard-boiled detective novels have been favorite topics of American cinema and literature studies for decades. The shadowy nights, crooked cities, seductive femme fatales, and world-weary private detective crusaders have haunted lecture halls and critical texts ever since Nino Frank first wrote the term film noir in 1946. Given the been-there-done-that nature of many film noir discussions, is there anything left to learn? As the extraordinarily articulate Gene D. Phillips proves with his book Creatures of Darkness: Raymond Chandler, Detective Fiction, and Film Noir (2000), cinema fans and Chandler readers can revisit this old stomping ground, learn something new, and have a tremendously enjoyable time doing it.

Noddy Mr. Men and Little Miss Olivia Famous Five ... Enid Blyton Raymond Chandler In February 2005 Chorion acquired all rights to the fictional works of Raymond Chandler, best known as the author of the Philip Marlowe series of detective novels. Raymond Chandler (1888-1959) set the style for the mainstream of American crime fiction, penning seven completed novels featuring world-weary private eye Philip Marlowe, including The Big Sleep, Farewell My Lovely and The Long Goodbye. He also wrote several dozen short stories and a number of lauded screenplays, two of which (Double Indemnity, The Blue Dahlia), were nominated for Academy Awards. Chandler also had some influential admirers. He was lauded by Evelyn Waugh as the greatest living American novelist and the poet W.H. Auden said Chandler’s writing should not be judged as escapist literature but as art. Philip Marlowe "I see him always in a lonely street, in lonely rooms, puzzled but never quite defeated," wrote Raymond Chandler about his most famous fictional creation. Los Angeles private detective Philip Marlowe is one of one the classic characters of hard-boiled detective fiction. Essentially a loner, he is cynical yet idealistic, likes liquor and women and is educated enough that he boasts he can speak English if required to.
