About This Novel
Whenever he is in trouble, Haruki Murakami turns to Chandler! There are many books to read when you want to be awake. But when you want to get drunk, read Chandler! This collection includes all three masterpieces of Chandler, Haruki Murakami's literary idol and a master of American literature: "The Long Goodbye", "Goodbye, My Love", and "The Big Sleep"! As the founder and soul of "tough guy" literature, Chandler created the classic image of "tough guy detective" Marlowe with his textbook-level polished writing. Since then, all tough guys have the shadow of Marlowe. Chandler is recognized as one of the spokespersons of American literature in the 20th century! Chandler is also one of the great screenwriters in film history and the ancestor of Hollywood "film noir". Famous directors such as Hitchcock and Billy Wilder have collaborated with him. Chandler's novels have been adapted for the screen 11 times, and Nobel Prize winner Faulkner participated in the screenplay of his works. Hollywood actors in the 1940s were proud to play Marlowe. The three books in the series all feature private detective Philip Marlowe as the protagonist. Watch how a lonely tough guy detective wanders around the edge of the dark city, how he faces all kinds of people and complicated cases he encounters, and how he maintains the justice in his heart in this dark world...
