Allegedly Dashiell Hammett’s favorite novel, it is the final
of his for the 1,001 list. I’ve enjoyed all of his novels and have taken a
liking to the crime genre.
It’s served as the source to a number of adaptations in
addition to an inspiration for the Coen brothers’ Miller’s Crossing. It’s also
the namesake of the Glass Key Award, an honor bestowed on the author of the top
crime novel in Scandinavia.
So long, Dashiell.
