雷蒙德·钱德勒的《简单的谋杀艺术》（The Simple Art of Murder）也同样很值得一读：https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Simple_Art_of_Murder https://www.fadedpage.com/books/20140930/html.php#Page_1
Also worth reading in this genre is Raymond Chandler’s The Simple Art of Murder: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Simple_Art_of_Murder https://www.fadedpage.com/books/20140930/html.php#Page_1
我建议先从他的一些短篇小说集读起，比如《简单的谋杀艺术》（The Simple Art of Murder）——https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20140930 ，或者《找麻烦是我的职业》（Trouble is My Business）——https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20150520
I'd recommend starting with some of his collections of short stories, like 'The Simple Art of Murder' - https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20140930 or 'Trouble is My Business' - https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20150520
……至少能对一部作品的价值有个大致的评估是件好事。而且犯罪小说作家自己也常常质疑这类作品的价值，比如雷蒙德·钱德勒的随笔《简单的谋杀艺术》（The Simple Art of Murder）。明明能读格雷厄姆·格林，我们干嘛非要读阿加莎·克里斯蒂呢？这在我看来是个很有意思的问题
…good to have at least some vague indication of the worth of a work. Also writers of crime fiction often have themselves question ed the worth of much of the production, see Raymond Chandler's Essay "The Simple Art of Murder'. Why should we read Christie when we could rather read Graham Greene sounds like an interesting question to me

……把序号抹掉了。哈米特在投身写作之前，除了干过别的营生，自己就当过平克顿侦探。我之所以会去读他的作品，是因为雷蒙德·钱德勒是他的超级大粉丝，这我是从钱德勒的随笔《简单的谋杀艺术》[1]里了解到的 [1] https://archive.is/fi4Wz
