In Chandler's hands, the pulp crime story became a haunting mystery of power and corruption,
set against a modern cityscape that is both lyrical and violent ; The library of America
is dedicated to publishing America's best and most significant writing in handsome,
enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts. Hailed as the "finest-looking, longest-lasting
editions ever made" (The New Republic), Library of America volumes make a fine gift
for any occasion. Now, with exactly one hundred volumes to choose from, there is a
perfect gift for everyone ; "As another reminder of where we've come from and why
we're still reading mysteries, The Library of America has put together two handsome
volumes of Raymond Chandler's work -- guaranteed to bring a broad grin of acquisitive
delight to the face of any recipient"--Los Angeles Times Book Review
