    Extractions: (Parts of this bio are adapted from the flap copy for the 1999 Dennis McMillan edition of No Good From a Corpse , originally published in 1944. Grateful acknowledgement goes to Dennis for lettingThere's also an excerpt you can read, and ordering information is also available.) Here's the story... In 1944, a young writer of pulp detective and science fiction tales from Los Angeles published her first book, No Good from a Corpse . It was a hard-boiled detective novel in the style of Raymond Chandler, and her dialogue so impressed one of her readers, the Hollywood director Howard Hawks, that he had his secretary call in "this guy Bracketthe'd be good to write the screenplay of The Big Sleep with Bill Faulkner." When "this guy Brackett" turned out to be a young woman, he shrugged off his surprise and hired her anyway. The rest is film history, as Hawks' 1946 version of The Big Sleep , starring Humphrey Bogart and written by Leigh Brackett, William Faulkner, and Jules Furthman, is considered one of the best movies ever made in the genre. Prior to the appearance of No Good from a Corpse , Brackett had already written several short stories, novellas, and even a short novel ( The Misfortune Teller ) for various pulp magazines of the pre-war erathe most usual forum and proving grounds for aspiring writers of genre fiction at that time. She was a life-long fan of science fiction, and much of her fiction reflected her love of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Tarzan and John Carter Martian stories. Her first published short story, in fact, was called

    Extractions: Den här bilden togs när jag hälsade på hos Leigh Brackett och Edmond Hamilton 1975. Leigh Brackett gillade att köra snabba bilar. Det var hon som satt vid ratten när de hämtade mig vid en bussterminal i downtown Los Angeles. På vägen till deras hem uppe bland bergen stannade Leigh Brackett bilen och det vänliga paret Brackett-Hamilton pekade ut St. Andrews-sprickan för mig, den där sprickan där kontinentalteorins (numera icke en teori eftersom Wegeners idé visat sig vara ett faktum) flak rör sig över varandra och åstadkommer jordbävningar. Leigh Brackett berättade för mig om hur hon som ung dam kom ut med sin första deckare. Då blev hon uppringd av Howard Hawks . Han hade läst boken och tyckte inte att den var nåt att hänga i julgranen. "Men", sa han, "ni skriver en underbar dialog och jag vill att ni ska skriva filmmanus åt mig." Sagt och gjort. Första jobbet blev att tillsammans med William Faulkner göra filmmanus på Raymond Chandler s gamla kioskdeckare The Big Sleep . Faulkner må sedermera ha tilldelats Nobel-priset i litteratur, men i Hollywood blev han berömd för att inte ha fått igenom en enda replik ograverad. Leigh Brackett: "Faulkner skrev Faulkner-dialoger och de var underbara att läsa, men omöjliga för skådespelare att uttala. En dag under inspelningen av The Big Sleep kom Humphrey Bogart fram till mig och frågade: har ni skrivit det här? Det går inte att uttala." Det var naturligtvis Faulkner som slagit till.
