{"product_id":"the-raymond-chandler-map-of-los-angeles-9781910023464","title":"The Raymond Chandler Map of Los Angeles","description":"Few writers are as inextricably linked with a city as Raymond Chandler and Los Angeles. The neon-lit streets, mobbed-up joints and seedy rooming houses portrayed in his fiction were real places, familiar to Angelenos of the time, and in some cases recognisable today. \u003cbr\u003eThis is a guide to the world of Raymond Chandler and his noble alter-ego, the private detective Philip Marlowe. It mixes locations from the books, the films and Chandler's personal life. There's the crummy dive where Moose Malloy went looking for Velma; the actual lounge where Marlowe and Terry Lennox ordered gimlets; the top-floor suite where oil executive Chandler got his priceless education in how a dirty, sun-drenched city really operated. \u003cbr\u003eThis is the Los Angeles that Raymond Chandler carried in his heart. And now, you can too.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eCooper, Kim:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - From Esotouric's true crime tours to her novel The Kept Girl, which stars the young Raymond Chandler, Kim is the premiere historian of L.A.'s lost lore.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eRogers, Paul:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - A native Angeleno, Paul has been making illustrations from a studio in Pasadena and tracking down Chandler locations for 35 years.","brand":"Herb Lester Associates","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50645651620114,"sku":"9781910023464","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_a0f5372a-c15e-45a2-9d8a-26d43b7ffb52.jpg?v=1733157999","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-raymond-chandler-map-of-los-angeles-9781910023464","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
