...apparent unreadiness to regard Gorbachev's proposals as legitimate. While we agree that both sides should be cautious, as any government should be, we cannot support insinuations that would place American presidents morally above Soviet leaders.

But quality and influence are mysteriously related, and Chandler has inspired more poses and more parodies, perhaps, than any other American writer of the century save Hemingway. Eliot merely articulated the deepest spiritual and emotional issues of the times; Chandler...
