The Art of the Mystery Story
Howard Haycraft, Anthony Boucher, John Dickson Carr, Raymond Chandler, G.K. Chesterton, R. Austin Freeman, Erle Stanley Gardner, Dashiell Hammett, Ben Hecht, Ellery Queen, James Sandoe, Dorothy L. Sayers, Vincent Starrett, Rex Stout, Edmund Wilson
Being - by popular understanding - the first serious spread of literary criticism on the humble whodunit. "The Simple Art of Murder" of course needs no introduction, but consider some of the co-stars, e.g. "A Defence of Detective Stories" (G.K. Chesterton), "Trojan Horse Opera" (Anthony Boucher), "The Case of the Early Beginning" (Erle Stanley Gardner), "The Locked-Room Lecture" (John Dickson Carr), "Watson Was a Woman" (Rex Stout), "Who Cares Who Killed Roger Ackroyd?" (Chandler's old nemesis Edmund Wilson), and "From the Memoirs of a Private Detective" (Chandler's old hero Dashiell Hammett). Just about every first-rater - and plenty second-raters - of the era, so bursting with brilliant and completely irreconcilable wisdom that you'll be shocked any one book could print them all without spontaneously combusting.
(Somewhere, perhaps, there lies a rejected essay analyzing the publisher's very own cash-cow sleuths, Frank and Joe Hardy.)
