I guess I didn't read the back cover, I didn't remember that.
I just read The Maltese Falcon and I think you're probably
right, that is the only thing that even comes close. On the
other hand, the cover of The Colorado Kid has absolutely no
bearing on the story within, so who knows?
And wasn't the point of the Flitcraft parable that people
essentially don't change? Flitcraft takes off but basically
ends up in the same place he was, albeit a different
geographic location. He was even married to a woman much like
his first wife.
I like your explanation of the time element too. If you don't
care where you going, it's easy to get somewhere fast.
