R. Chandler - The Big Sleep
De Patrick Badonnel, Claude Maisonnat
Klincksieck
CNED-Didier concours (Capes/Agrégation d'Anglais)
Offres
The Big Sleep was published in 1939 and was immediately labelled as hard-boiled . The New Yorker described it as a terrifying story of degeneracy in Southern California by an author who almost makes Dashiell Hammett seem as innocuous as Winnie-the-Pooh . Chandler, much more than any other detective story-writer in America, has established a tradition of which leading contemporary writers like James Ellroy could be regarded as the inheritors. As W.H. Auden wrote: Chandler is interested in writing, not detective stories, but serious studies of a criminal milieu, the Great Wrong Place, and his powerful but extremely depressing books should be read and judged, not as escape literature, but as works of art .
