I recently bought one of those talking tapes with Ed Bishop
doing
Marlowe and there're pretty good but one of them includes
Chandler
himself talking to Iam Flemming and apart from it being both
funny
and interesting, Chandler commenting on the reality of the
things he
writes about says that the first thing you do when you get hit
on the
head is vomit, something the books neglect to mention.
