And also the day that he met his wife, Nora Barnacle. For the first time. It’s worth celebrating if you’re a Joycian. I’ve been going through some of my notes today. I have a vague recollection that Ray mentioned James Joyce in one of his letters but I can’t find it. He read Eliot whose poetry makes an appearance in. And he probably read.

Hammett was the ace performer… He was spare, frugal, hard-boiled, but he did over and o...
