About the book: 1980 / He began his writing career as a writer for comic books. Spillane published his first novel, The Court is Me, in 1946. The hero of this and twelve other books was private detective Mike Hammer, one of the most popular characters in popular culture. Spillane's novels have been adapted into films and television many times. Spillane's enormous success is usually attributed to the successful mixture of his crude language, the harshness of the characters and the abundance of erotic scenes. His books, as another crime writer, Raymond Chandler, said, can be called “a mixture of violence and naked pornography.” Nevertheless, he became a classic of the genre. Contents:1.
