Killer in the Rain
General Fiction雨中杀手
(us) Raymond Chandler
The most exquisite character dialogues in today's literary world are eight novels never published by the tough-guy soul writer Raymond Chandler during his lifetime. Eliot, Camus, O'Neill, Murakami Haruki, Qian Zhongshu and other literary masters admired the detective novels that have been recorded in the history of classic literature. They have been translated into more than 30 languages and sold more than 500 million copies. These eight stories are stepping stones into Chandler's world and the golden key to Marlowe's past and present lives. In the early years of California, the sun was brighter, the police were more humane, and the world was a kinder place. A private detective who is going all out to find the truth is being born. He is "I", he is Dalmas, he is Kalmadi, he is Evans, and he is also Philip Marlowe. Even if the name is different, the sense of justice in his bones remains unchanged. In his own world, he must be the best man; and for any world, he will be a good enough man.

(us) Donald Ray Pollock
The story begins with Willard Russell, a World War II veteran who returns home. After marriage, Russell and his wife were very loving, and they gave birth to a son named Alvin. But the good times didn't last long. A few years later Charlotte was diagnosed with stomach cancer. After the doctors were helpless, Russell began to force his son to pray frantically with him day and night. After the prayer failed, Russell thought of "sacrifice." He first collected animals that were killed on the roadside, then slaughtered live lambs, then pointed the butcher knife at his son's pet dog, and finally committed murder... When all this madness was in vain, Russell offered the last sacrifice beside his wife's grave: himself. After his father died, little Alvin was raised by his grandmother. Although he experienced a terrible childhood, Alvin inherited his father's strong determination and lacked his father's paranoid fanaticism. Somehow, his fate is intertwined with a series of crazy, weird, hypocritical, or cold-blooded sinners; and in the end, all sins will be judged through the hands of this young man in some unexplainable way...
