Ogni giorno ci imbattiamo in situazioni che mettono a dura prova la nostra pazienza. Tra una notte bianca e un apericena, siamo perseguitati da problemi che assumono le forme più disparate. Ma si presentano sempre, inevitabilmente, nel momento sbagliato. Che siano animali esotici fuori stagione o sconosciuti sport olimpici, che ci raggiungano dopo aver attraversato la steppa o il web, la nostra vita non può fare a meno di confrontarsi con loro.

Marlowe finds himself in Lonesome, Arizona, on the trail of the loot from a bank robbery. A corpse that wouldn’t stay dead, a pistol with a silencer on it, and a fortune in a black satchel spell death for the big city boys when they finally get together in lonesome Arizona.

Eddie Mallet is being followed by a gorilla in a tee shirt with muscles out-to-here. Marlowe is hired to find out why, but not soon enough to save Eddie. The partner from Mexico City, the stranger dead in Nevada, and the man with the cauliflower ear all added up to a corpse on a concrete floor, but Philip Marlowe couldn’t figure why until he found out that there was one name above all that had to be remembered....

Murder on a motorcycle, as Marlowe goes to work for a millionaire trying to protect his daughter. An iron skull was their trademark, their business was climbing walls, and it was all done on wheels at 70 miles an hour. But that was a cinch for the death cheaters, until they felt murder and a feminine touch....

Marlowe is hired to keep a man from getting killed; he fails miserably. In waddles The Hippo, who always laughs, even with a gun in his hand. Marlowe is shot! Get this, and get it straight - crime is a sucker's road, and those who travel it wind up in the gutter, the prison, or the grave. There’s no other end, but they never learn. This time a nervous breakdown and a driving rain, a cape with a high collar, and a tiny sliver of glass led me from the ballet and a beautiful dancer to the edge of a cliff and death.

The story of a mixed-up girl, and her mixed-up life, and her really strange sister. The big fog that clung to Los Angeles made searching for the girl who was going to kill herself slow and uneasy, but in the end I’d have settled for that and more because murder happened twice before I found the lady in mink....

A Hawaiian caper on the trail of the fabulous historic relic. Marlowe finds murder and intrigue...including a dead Philip Marlowe, found in a lily pond! A good dramatic conclusion on the Pali of Oahu. It started at dawn in a Los Angeles taxi and wound up that night on a cliff in the middle of the pacific all because of a dustman with $50,000, a corpse in a lily pond and an oriental with a chauffer who wanted a cloak made of nothing but feathers....

Why is The Heat Wave, a burlesque dancer, wearing a golden mask? Marlowe's been hired to find out. Murder tries a strip tease!

In a Mexican diamond mine, Detective Philip Marlowe must knab a thief! Get this and get it straight. Crime is a sucker’s road, and those who travel it wind up in the gutter, the prison, or an early grave. There’s no other end, but they never learn. Let me give you an example. Philip Marlowe was hired to find a thief and he did, a thousand miles from home. What he found was a fresh corpse in the closet, and all because the only woman in sight wouldn’t play fair.

A good action story about an escaped convict and the two women in his life. When it started, a girls wedding and New Years Eve were only six hours away, and Philip Marlowe didn’t think the bride-to-be would make either one of them, but that was before he ran up against the slot machine operator, the escaped convict, and above all, the old acquaintance.

Bizarre enthusiasm, unusual inheritors, $300,000, and a map are some of the details that made the radio broadcast perfect. When the will was read, everybody figured she'd been crazy when she wrote it. And that included me. But I changed my mind after spending a night on an island with a pig, a cat, and an ape. Because in reality, they were people.

Philip Marlowe was a fictional private eye created by author Raymond Chandler. He was first seen as portrayed by Humphrey Bogart in the 1939 classic feature The Big Sleep. The fictional detective was introduced to the radio in 1947 and, by 1949, was the most popular radio detective.

“Timely and important . . . It should be our North Star for the recovery and beyond.” —Hillary Clinton “Sperling makes a forceful case that only by speaking to matters of the spirit can liberals root their belief in economic justice in people’s deepest aspirations—in their sense of...
