The film of The Big Sleep (Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall !!) is also excellent.

I found ebook versions of chandler books here :
http://www.ebookmall.com/alpha-autho...d-Chandler.htm
several formats available, not very expensive

and here :

in eReader format.

there are more ; do a google search for "Raymond Chandler ebook"
Only one recording of Raymond Chandler's speaking voice survives, a BBC interview conducted with Chandler in 1958 by none other than Ian Fleming. You can listen to it by going here .
