RARA-AVIS: Another Chandler question

From: Michael Robison ( miker_zspider@yahoo.com)
Date: 27 Jul 2006


In some of the recent hardboiled commentary I've been reading I've encountered Chandler's comment about the streets being "dark with something other than night."

Could somebody tell me where this is from, and perhaps expand a little on it. The most recent interpretation I've read suggests that it's racist. I'll be embarrassed if it's in The Simple Art of Murder. I just reread that and didn't catch it.

Thank you, miker
