The Raymond Chandler Papers by Tom Hiney

The Raymond Chandler Papers brings together the correspondence and other previously uncollected writing of America's undisputed master of crime fiction and creator of the iconic private eye Phillip Marlowe, revealing all aspects of the great artist's powerful personality and broad intellectual curiosity. Featuring a selection of Chandler's previously unpublished early writings -- including a gripping piece about his combat experiences in World War I -- and an abandoned profile of the infamous mobster Lucky Luciano, The Raymond Chandler Papers is a must-have for all true fans, and an important contribution toward understanding the life and work of the enigmatic man Evelyn Waugh called the greatest living American novelist. M]akes clear the private Chandler was just as powerful, and his wit was as cutting as Marlowe's. -- Roger Lowenstein, The Wall Street Journal For the Chandler fan, The Raymond Chandler Papers . is a treasure-trove. -- David Lehman, The New York Times Book Review
