( ) The obvious advantage of the Penguin Modern Classics mini-series is that each volume offers a taste of an author at a very low price. Thus, Killer in the rain offers the title story of what was originally published as a short story collection in a slim, small-size pocket book. Killer in the rain is a detective story with elements of murder and blackmail. The style of writing brings together a number of features which have long since become the cliche hall-marks of the detective genre. Perhaps the style of Chandler's fiction is a tat more literary than the regular pulp. An interesting diversion in a genre I do not usually prefer to select my readings from. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Before creating Philip Marlowe, Raymond Chandler perfected the hardboiled private detective story in the pages of Blask Mask magazine - tough, spare tales of gumshoes and murder, laced with a weary lyricism and deadpan, laconic wit. 'Killer in the Rain' is vintage Chandler, the groundwork for his classic first novel The Big Sleep. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
