THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN TYPEWRITER edited by Fergus Fleming



THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN TYPEWRITER

edited by Fergus Fleming

(Bloomsbury �9.99)

Explaining how he came to write his first James Bond thriller, Casino Royale, the novelist Ian Fleming ungallantly recalled: �After being a bachelor for 44 years, I was on the edge of marrying and the prospect was so horrifying that I was in urgent need of some activity to take my mind off it.�

To celebrate finishing the novel, Fleming ordered a gold-plated typewriter, and the letters he typed on it sparkle as brightly as the machine itself.

This selection of Fleming�s correspondence, edited by his nephew, Fergus, chronicles his literary career, with a chapter devoted to each of the Bond books.

Witty, charming and unexpectedly modest (his note to a Scottish minister who had preached a thunderous sermon against the wickedness of Bond is a model of humility), this offers a glimpse into the private world of Bond and his creator.
