Raymond Chandler: A Biography par Tom Hiney

Hiney on Chandler is as good as it gets. Somewhere in that book, Chandler is quoted as saying that those men who stand up in a line abreast and walk forward into live machine-gun fire gain a perspective on life that those who haven't done it never achieve. My guess is that recovery from such an experience involves copious amounts of booze, countless reams of paper, and the occasional company of others who survived a similar adventure.
