Raymond Thornton Chandler amerikai krimiíró. Jelentősége mérhetetlen volt: leginkább stílusa és gondolkodásmódja volt az, amely az elmúlt hatvan évben hatást gyakorolt a bűnügyi irodalomra.

Raymond Chandler könyv The Big Sleep

opening paragraph, chapter 1
The Big Sleep (1939)
Kontextus: It was about eleven o'clock in the morning, mid October, with the sun not shining and a look of hard wet rain in the clearness of the foothills. I was wearing my powder-blue suit, with dark blue shirt, tie and display handkerchief, black brogues, black wool socks with dark little clocks on them. I was neat, clean, shaved and sober, and I didn't care who knew it. I was everything the well-dressed private detective ought to be. I was calling on four million dollars.
