From the Publisher:
Prefaced by the famous Atlantic Monthly essay of the same name, in which he argues the virtues of the hard-boiled detective novel, this collection mostly drawn from stories he wrote for the pulps demonstrates Chandler's imaginative, entertaining facility with the form.
Raymond Chandler: Simple Art of Murder. Vintage Books, ISBN: 0394757653 (August, 1988), 377 p., $13.95
