Sinossi
Dopo cinque romanzi, Ian Fleming confessò al suo amico Eric Ambler di avere finalmente capito quali fossero gli ingredienti base per una delle sue (delle loro) storie: «ragazze nude, spie, e armi nucleari», meglio se ospitate sulla stessa isola. Di isole adatte al sesto episodio di 007 Fleming ne aveva visitate parecchie, e la più attraente era senz'altro Great Inagua, nelle Bahamas: colonie di uccelli rari protetti dalla Audubon Society, grandi paludi, mangrovie, granchi giganti assai temibili - e guano ovunque. Anche la trama era già pronta, bastava prendere un trattamento per la televisione americana di qualche anno prima, mai realizzato, in cui Fleming aveva ipotizzato che una misteriosa, potentissima organizzazione criminale possedesse apparecchiature in grado di deviare i missili intercontinentali americani. Bisognava solo trovarle un capo, magari prestandogli qualche tratto di un cattivo per antonomasia, il dottor Fu Manchu, e il gioco era quasi fatto. Cosa mancava? Ah già, le ragazze nude, almeno una. Be', qui Fleming giocava sul sicuro, tanto da potersi permettere di non aspettare gli arzigogolati rituali di accoppiamento del suo 007, presentandoci Honeychile, appena uscita dall'acqua, nella stessa veste in cui, da allora, è impossibile non continuare a immaginarla.

Bond. James Bond. When I first started reading the Bond books, I really wasn't impressed by his treatment of women or his skills as a secret agent. But now? Bond is not only the man, he's a whole different kind of man. After reading Casino Royale I wondered if this was going to be a stagnant series of Leggi tutto
Originally published in 1957, the sixth book in the original James Bond series; the one made famous as Ursula Andress comes out of the sea, semi-naked in front of Sean Connery . Its Honeychile Rider (great name!) and James Bond against the hand-less Dr No in Jamaica. Breathtakingly and speedily outda Leggi tutto

Was this when Fleming started to phone it in? I have enjoyed several of the earlier Bond novels, but this one was full of purple prose and even more cringe-inducing racism and sexism than usual. I mean, this is James Bond we're talking about, who was a misogynistic dick even when cleaned up for Holl Leggi tutto
I loved this book. Best Bond book yet...possibly the best one of all time, but we'll see. ... We ended the last book (From Russia With Love) on a cliffhanger. Bond is kicked with a poisoned blade by the evil lady torturer Rosa Klebb. Now, after months of medical treatment, he's ready to go back to work Leggi tutto
RIP, Sean Connery, aged 90, always the grinning James Bond in our hearts. Dr. No is a film I have seen a couple times in my lifetime and recall enjoying for the sheer entertainment (i.e., Ursula Andress with Sean Connery), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlYkn... with Bond fighting spiders and squids Leggi tutto
Dr. No happens to be one of my favorite James Bond movies, because it was the first; the Bond villain is Killer-Great. I did not realize that the movies were not in the same order as the books, but here as I read the sixth book, I was startled at some of the similarities and more importantly the dif Leggi tutto
