Resumen del Editor
A brand new BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation of a classic Raymond Chandler mystery featuring private eye, Philip Marlowe.
Down-and-out drunk Terry Lennox has a problem: his millionaire wife is dead and he needs to get out of LA fast. So he turns to his only friend in the world: Philip Marlowe, Private Investigator. He’s willing to help a man down on his luck, but later, Lennox commits suicide in Mexico and things start to turn nasty. Marlowe finds himself drawn into a sordid crowd of adulterers and alcoholics in LA’s Idle Valley, where the rich are suffering one big suntanned hangover. Marlowe is sure Lennox didn’t kill his wife, but how many more stiffs will turn up before he gets to the truth?

He's tall. He's tough. He's the king of the hardboiled private eyes, and he's stalking the rain-swept streets of postwar Los Angeles. He's Philip Marlowe, here with 20 thrill-a-minute episodes produced and directed by Norman Macdonnell. Tough-voiced Gerald Mohr plays Raymond Chandler's Marlowe as a man who has been burned by the world a little too often for his own good. He finds mysteries among valuables and the violent, facing down false witnesses and frame-ups.

After working with the best-selling crime writer for years, she's intimately familiar with his detective, Atticus Pünd, who solves mysteries disturbing sleepy English villages. An homage to queens of classic British crime such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers, Alan's traditional formula has proved hugely successful.

Sloan will go through hell and back for those she loves. And she does so, every single day. Caught up with the alluring Asa Jackson, a notorious drug trafficker, Sloan has finally found a lifeline to cling to, even if it’s meant compromising her morals. She was in dire straits trying to pay for her brother’s care until she met Asa. But as Sloan became emotionally and economically reliant on him, he in turn developed a disturbing obsession with her—one that becomes increasingly dangerous every day.

Historia
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Historia
Tess Strebel can’t recognize her own face. She can’t recognize her home. Her bedroom is unfamiliar. And she can’t remember the handsome stranger lying next to her in bed. A stranger who claims he’s her husband. Tess reads a letter in her own handwriting, composed during a rare lucid day, explaining her life as it now exists: she was in a terrible car accident one year ago. Every morning, she wakes up unable to remember most of the last decade. Including her own wedding.

Just what you'ld expect from Chandler
Dramatisation is certainly more fun than a single reader's voice. Reader's chosen well and great material.

Enjoyable Noir. Well Produced.
Where does Raymond Chandler: The Long Goodbye (Dramatised) rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
In the upper third. These dramatized Chandler tales aren't not long enough to spend a full credit on, but they are entertaining enough to pay the small price Audible asks for them.
What did you like best about this story?
The dramatization. These abridge shorts are very well made.
What about the narrators’s performance did you like?
I really like the background sounds (a clink of a glass, the click of a gun, etc.)
Any additional comments?
Bought this one and then started collecting some of the others. I'm up to three of these now, and can see myself buying a few more.

A Great Way To Spend One & A Half Hours
Any additional comments?
I'm a huge fan of those old radio plays from the 40's & 50's so at first I was a bit skeptical that they could re-create what is now an entirely lost artform. But I was blown away by how wonderful a job they did at producing that same feeling while listening. The acting, music, sound effects & overall production all contributed to a really great translation of Raymond Chandler's book into the different medium.

Toby Stephens is no Ed Bishop
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Better actors, full production elements, sound effects, and a longer less condensed version of the story.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Phillip Marlowe-however this rather amaterurish version of Marlowe doesn't work.
What didn’t you like about the narrators’s performance?
The narrator tried too hard to evoke a film noir influenced style to his read. It was not only ineffective it was style over substance. The beauty of any Chandler book is the words, the late Ed Bishop who performed these same stories in the 1970's on BBC articulated and emphasized with ease the language and attitude of Chandler. Toby has the pipes but gets lost by not understanding the context of the character. It's especially annoying with the inferior mix of audio, a lot of background bursts of voices which are mere fragments of the original production, The whole production although sharp in some sections sounds too post modern and ironic.
What character would you cut from Raymond Chandler: The Long Goodbye (Dramatised)?
That should read what actor? The gentlemen playing Terry Lennox was horiffic, sounded like a 17 year old boy. No Jim Bouton.
Any additional comments?
Unfortunately Ed Bishop has passed, and the original 1970's era actors and producers are likely not available. I admire the fact that you would take this task on and Toby is talented, but not ready to step in Ed's shoes. As for the paired down production elements and lesser actors it's a real disappointment. Instead-reissue the superior production from the 1970's. The producers should have offered the lead to Elliot Gould who besides being a great actor, is a huge chandler fan and the star of the 1973 film adaptation of the book.

Lifeless Goodbye
So disappointing was this story that I didn't bother listening to the ending. Predictable and slow. I usually love the Raymond Chandler stories with Philip Marlowe so I was surprised and bored. I will think again before ordering another.
