In this colorful reinvention of a classic, Philip Marlowe finds himself tangled in two missing persons cases; &“Ide has chiseled…
off the rust while keeping the soul of one of American fiction&’s icons&” (Dennis Lehane). The seductive and relentless figure of Raymond Chandler&’s detective, Philip Marlowe, is vividly re-imagined in present-day Los Angeles. Here is a city of scheming Malibu actresses, ruthless gang members, virulent inequality, and washed-out police. Acclaimed and award-winning novelist Joe Ide imagines a Marlowe very much of our time: he&’s a quiet, lonely, and remarkably capable and confident private detective, though he lives beneath the shadow of his father, a once-decorated LAPD homicide detective, famous throughout the city, who&’s given in to drink after the death of Marlowe&’s mother. Marlowe, against his better judgement, accepts two missing person cases, the first a daughter of a faded, tyrannical Hollywood starlet, and the second, a British child stolen from his mother by his father. At the center of The Goodbye Coast is Marlowe&’s troubled and confounding relationship with his father, a son who despises yet respects his dad, and a dad who&’s unable to hide his bitter disappointment with his grown boy. Steeped in the richly detailed ethnic neighborhoods of modern LA, Ide&’s The Goodbye Coast is a bold recreation that is viciously funny, ingeniously plotted, and surprisingly tender.Par Roy Johansen. 2022
