Thanks for the link to the Chandler LA map. I have only read one of his books, but Bob Wilson loved them. He said living in Dublin seemed like living in a James Joyce theme park and living in LA seemed like living in a Raymond Chandler theme park.
The great bassist Charlie Haden also loved Chandler. Also, Chandler went to Dulwich College, as did P. G. Wodehouse and David Thomson.
