Assassino metido a esperto e outras histórias

Chandler's sharp prose and moral ambiguity set a standard for detective fiction. I'm curious how his work shaped the genre's evolution.

The detectives often face ethical dilemmas that feel surprisingly modern. Did this make the stories resonate more deeply with readers today?

The setting almost becomes a character itself, reflecting the tone of the stories. I wonder what led him to portray LA in this way.
