Welcome to Raven's Readings. All novels are copyright-free here in Canada. I'm reading from The Big Sleep, a hardboiled crime novel written in 1939 by Raymond Chandler, introducing his character Philip Marlow. The book is copyright-free here in Canada. It was adapted to film in 1946, starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall.

Last time, Marlow met the older daughter Vivien, Mrs. Regan, and followed a customer from A.G. Geiger's store. Next he'll find out just what's so rare about his books, and try to find the dealer. Things will not go well.

I do readings twice a week. Please subscribe to my Substack newsletter, and you'll be notified of my updates as soon as they are ready. If you enjoy this reading, or have other classics you'd like to hear, leave me a comment. Maybe I'll do some Hemmingway, or Steinbeck.

Remember that you can manage here which sections of my SubStack you’ll receive emails for—fiction, Odds and Ends, Political Bytes, Podcastings, or all.
