The Femme Fatale and the Bad Boy are Sister and Brother

You've met her.  Maybe not in person, but she appears in almost every James M. Cain and Raymond Chandler novel.  Pulp fiction would have never gained an audience without her.  She appears in movies and in novels of all types today.  The femme fatale -- the sexy, seductive woman who leads men to destruction.

Bonjour! Jackson Burnett...

You're very welcome!...

Which of the Raymond Chandler novels is your favorite?

Well, a family member, "introduced"  me to author Raymond Chandler's novels...and since I have only read two Of his novels I would have to say "Farewell, My Lovely," and "The Little Sister." [ I Of course, prefer the former book over the latter.]

Now, to turn the table a bit and let me ask you, which is your favorite Chandler novel? and merci, for the compliment ...too!

deedee gauzot :-D
