From Jonathan Lethem's introduction to The Annotated Big Sleep "Nothing, even a book as singular and archetypal as The Big Sleep , comes from nowhere. What a gift, to see in part how Chandler made it. Under just three names, these annotators number among them two poets, an archivist and literary scholar, a gifted crime novelist, and three sleuths; reading it conveys the vicarious thrill of their innumerable discoveries. Chandler lucked out."
