Query: Yojimbo! After the Falcon, my favorite Hammett

This book is the source for the movie Yojimbo and its American remakes. I did not like it over much the first time I read it, but when I reread all of Hammett I found I liked it more than any except the Maltese Falcon.It is much less violent than modern riffs on the theme -- and there are many -- but somehow Hammett captures a hardness and ruthlessness that no-one else (not Ellroy or Thompson or Vachss) quite can.And the prose is perfect.
