Raymond Chandler |
|
ISBN-10: 1845135261 ISBN-13: 9781845135263
Description: A major new biography of the writer who more than any other has defined modern crime fiction What we know of Raymond Chandler is shrouded in secrets and half-truths as deceptive as anything in his magisterial novel The Long Goodbye. Now drawing on new interviews previously unpublished letters and archives on both sides of the Atlantic literary gumshoe Tom Williams casts light on this most mysterious of writers. The Raymond Chandler revealed is a man troubled by loneliness and desertion from an early age - experiences that fuelled his writing as much as they scarred his life. Born in Chicago in 1888 his childhood was overshadowed by the cruel collapse of his parents' marriage his father's alcohol-fuelled violence eventually forcing the boy and his doting mother to leave for Ireland and later London. As a young man eager to forge a new life unconstrained by the stuffy English class system he returned to the US where - in corruption-ridden Los Angeles - he met his one great love: Cissy Pascal a married woman 18 years his senior. It was only during middle age after his own alcoholism wrecked a lucrative career as an oilman that Chandler seriously turned to crime fiction although his success was to prove bittersweet. An obsessive attitude towards his craft unrealised literary ambitions and a suicidal turn after Cissy's death combined to prevent him from recapturing the verve of his earlier writing. However his legacy - the lonely ambiguous world of Philip Marlowe - endures compelling generation after generation of crime writers to go down mean streets. In this long-awaited new biography the most thorough and comprehensive yet written Tom Williams shadows one of the twentieth century's true literary giants and considers how crime was raised to the level of art. |

The Look Of Love: Paul Raymond - the Man Who Made Soho (Paperback) |
|
ISBN-10: 1846687160 ISBN-13: 9781846687167
Description: Film starring Steve Coogan on nationwide cinematic release April 2013. For almost forty years, Paul Raymond was one Britain's most scandalous celebrities. Best known as the owner of the world famous Raymond Revuebar, he was a successful theatre impresario, property magnate and porn baron. With his pencil moustache, gold jewellery and taste for showgirls, Raymond was both the brash personification of nouveau riche vulgarity and exemplar of the entrepreneurial spirit that enabled a poor boy from Liverpool to become Britain's richest man. The forthcoming film is directed by Michael Winterbottom and stars Steve Coogan, Tamsin Egerton, Chris Addison and Anna Friel. |
