Raymond Chandler's The Big Sleep is the definitive hardboiled detective story and Philip Marlowe the perfect expression of the cynical, world-weary gumshoe. Hired by the crippled General Sternwood to shake off a blackmailer, Marlowe also has to deal with the general's two rebellious daughters, the gamblers and pornographers they run with and, soon enough, some inconvenient murders. Chandler's LA and the gutter-life that populate it made crime fiction what it is today and remain unmatched.

Raymond Chandler's Creation of the Private Dick Philip Marlowe has become a staple of the Crime genre and one of the highest standards of Detective literature. The harsh realities of the novel are confronting and give the stakes that much more of an edge. Highest Recomendation Possible. - Dylan (QBD)
