  • Read this for the Big Read. Written quite well, but Sam Spade is not my bag. Noir fans would most likely appreciate this more.

  • The characters in this book seem so real, I can almost see them doing what they're described as doing before I read the description in the book. It's the only book I can remember feeling that about. Exciting, absorbing, thought-provoking in its conclusion.

    你還能說些什麼呢？
    女人與財寶賦予死亡...喔，不。
    是死亡賦予女人與財寶。

A treasure worth killing for. Sam Spade, a slightly shopworn private eye with his own solitary code of ethics. A perfumed grafter named Joel Cairo, a fat man name Gutman, and Brigid O’Shaughnessy, a beautiful and treacherous woman whose loyalties shift at the drop of a dime. These are the ingredients of Dashiell Hammett’s coolly glittering gem of detective fiction, a novel that has haunted three generations of readers.
