His effortless masculinity, smoldering sexuality, and verbal fleetness remain the embodiment of cool. He liked liquor, women, and working alone. And, in a world defined by betrayal, mistrust, and double-dealing, Marlowes rough exterior belies an unshakable code of honor. Taken together, his observations and witticisms represent some of the most scathing and brilliant writing in crime fiction, and coalesce into a wonderfully alluring worldview: a vision of unswerving righteousness, accountability, and stylish conduct in a sea of turpitude and injustice.Philip Marlowes Guide to Life is an elegant, A-Z compendium of Marlowes ever-more-relevant observations about crime, women, work, sex, good, evil, and life in the big city. Chandlers genius transcended genre; though he seemed to single-handedly invent noir, his work ventured beyond it into an idiom all its own, and he left behind a legacy of grit and disarming beauty. Here is a brilliant and loving tribute to that legacy, sure to delight fans old and new.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51892853440800,"sku":"NEW1400041589","price":56.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/41S1BVDWXFL.jpg?v=1781990578","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/philip-marlowes-guide-to-life-1400041589","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
