About this product

Product Information

A masterpiece of noir, Raymond Chandler's The Big Sleep helped to define a genre and remains one of the most celebrated and stylish novels of the twentieth century. Now, this comprehensive annotated edition offers a fascinating look behind the scenes of the novel, bringing the gritty and seductive world of Chandler's iconic private eye Philip Marlowe into full color. Notes on the historical context of Chandler's Los Angeles; excerpts from the author's personal letters and source texts; explorations of the issues of gender, sexuality, and race that permeate the story; and important interpretations and clarifications enrich the reader's understanding and situate the novel within the tradition of crime fiction that Chandler both built upon and made new.

Reviews
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."

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

    Amazing annotation of an amazing novel

    I you you’re reading this novel for the first time or if you’ve read it before and want to learn, an enormous amount about the backstory and about Raymond Chandler as a writer, this book is for you. For first time readers, I would suggest just reading the novel portion of this book and avoiding the annotation, then go back the second time and reading through the annotation. The three authors who contribute the annotation do an amazing job there, photos, maps, and details that were meticulously researched. This is a great book, both for Chandler’s novel and the copious detail of the annotation.
