The classic work that says nothing new but says it very well. Pip Fitz-Amobi is the heroine that young adult fiction doesn’t deserve, but that we readers need.

Everything is emptied of value by human baseness, and marriages, justice, law appear to be nothing more than hypocritical screens to minimize the stench of shit. The dialogues, Marlowe’s reflections, and the writing style are, for me, the best part to enjoy in Chandler’s novels; but here there’s more, there’s that descriptive force of a depressing humanity.

Well, there’s no point in retelling a masterpiece, it’s a waste of time and bores the reader. To use a metaphor, it was like getting a splash of cold water on your face after wandering in the desert for hours and hours.

A claim for the right to expression taken to the extreme, or perhaps the demand to be heard. Some scenes are really difficult to conceive, showpieces for the interaction between the visual part, the soundtrack, and the sound effects of the film.

The Milan I found in the novels of the series featuring Duca Lamberti is indeed far from the city of "pheeeega," of money, of cocaine… It is hard, barren, filthy, poor... hopeless. A raw character for sure, but not as cool as Philip Marlowe, and maybe because of this, a bit more real, with many contradictions and insecurities.
