Book Reviews of The Big Sleep
Book Review: Chandler at the top of his game
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not much into crime fiction, Bunker and Ellroy excepted but Chandler's prose - oft imitated but seldom bettered - still rates as some of the best in this (or any other) genre. So take the writing, add the drawl and empathy that Elliott Gould (see also The Long Goodbye)brings to the proceedings and you have a classic recording. The packaging is tacky, the sound reflects the date it was recorded but the end result still delivers. Trust me - this is one to load up on your phone, iPod or good old fashioned cd player.
