Detective genre

  • American writer Dashiell Hammett produced some of the most memorable detective novels and characters of the 20th century. Hammett introduced his best-known character, detective Sam Spade, in The Maltese Falcon (1930). A 1941 motion picture based on the book, starring Humphrey Bogart, also became famous.

Chandler, Raymond

  • American crime-fiction writer Raymond Chandler was one of the leading figures in the so-called hard-boiled school of detective writing during the 1920s and 1930s. Chandler’s famous detective, Philip Marlowe, epitomized the tough, unsentimental point of view of this style.
  • His first efforts were short stories published in magazines specializing in crime fiction, such as Black Mask. Chandler’s first novel, The Big Sleep (1939), chronicled Philip Marlowe’s search for a missing person through a shadowy underworld of blackmail, murder, and opium addiction. Subsequent novels included Farewell, My Lovely (1940), The High Window (1942), The Lady in the Lake (1944), and The Long Goodbye (1953). Chandler’s last complete novel, Playback, appeared in 1958. His short-story collections include Five Sinister Characters (1945) and The Simple Art of Murder (1950). Poodle Springs, a novel that Chandler left unfinished at his death, was completed by American crime writer Robert B. Parker and published in 1962.
