Description: An excellent introduction to the western world's most famous spy. Most of the western world knows James Bond only as the womanizing, gadget-happy British secret agent with the impossibly adventurous lifestyle, but if that's all you're expecting to find in these pages, author Fleming explodes your preconceptions with a welcome dose of deliciously insightful melancholy right from the first sentence of the first book: The scent and smoke and sweat of a casino are nauseating at three in the morning. He includes plenty of modern-day swashbuckling, objectification of women, and some gadgetry (though not as much as in the movies) through all three novels; but book-Bond is definitely darker than movie-Bond, at least in the tales in this volume. If Bond objectifies and uses women, it's because he has learned that in the end they are traitors: they betray him and the ideals he holds sacrosanct. In fact, the only people Bond really appears to be at all close to throughout the trilogy are his American counterpart Felix Leiter and his boss M. His relationship to M is quite the throwback to days gone by, or perhaps to days that never were in real life. In our modern climate of job dissatisfaction coupled with highly volatile employment, many readers will have trouble relating to the perfect, unspoken trust between manager and employee in the Moonraker club sequence. And lest the reader think that secret agent's life is nothing but glamour, gambling and meaningless sex, Fleming does not shy away from horrific torture scenes -- for example, what must be the ultimate male nightmare in Casino Royale, and what happens to Leiter in Live and Let Die. Far better (and safer) to lead a dull, boring life at home reading about uber-spies than actually be one. A final comment: I have to disagree with the negativity expressed by many Goodreads reviewers about the racism in Live and Let Die. The whole voodoo angle figured much more prominently in the movie than it does in the book, the word negro was at the time just as polite a word as African American is today, and Fleming makes a point of explaining to his at the time mostly British readership (i.e., people largely unacquainted with Harlem culture) that ...they're interested in much the same things as everyone else...Thank God they're not genteel about it -- that last phrase is an obvious slam against polite British
society if ever there was one.
