About this film

LibriVox recording of Red Harvest (Version 2) by Dashiell Hammett. Read in English by LibriVox Volunteers. This novel from 1929 introduces Hammett's recurring and always unnamed character, the "Continental Op," who works for the Continental Detective Agency. (Hammett himself worked for the famous Pinkerton National Detective Agency for seven years.) By some accounts the first detective novel in America to be classified as "hard-boiled" fiction, Red Harvest has appeared on several “best of” lists, including Time magazine’s list of the 100 best English-language novels published between 1923 and 2005. - Summary by Verla Viera For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
