Dashiell Hammett
What a great book. I have always loved the movie; original and sequels. That is what motivated me to try the book. I usually find I’ve read the book well before a movie comes out, but it was a little different this time, having been born 46 years after the book’s publication. Although like most book-to-movie translations there were some changes, overall it was very close. I loved the sharp wit of Nick and Nora, however was slightly disappointed in the portrayal of Dorothy Wynant. A great read whether you like the movie or not, but it’s not that much different.
