He is master of the detective novel, yes, but also one hell of a writer
Hammett's prose is clean and entirely unique. His characters are as sharp and economically defined as any in American literature
One of the foremost practitioners of the hard-boiled detective story
He put these people down on paper as they are, and he made them talk and think in the language they customarily used
The first fully "hard-boiled" hero in American letters
The dean of the school of hard-boiled fiction
...a literary classic dealing with corruption by one of the masters of crime fiction
...a literary classic dealing with corruption by one of the masters of crime fiction CATHOLIC HERALD
