If you are manly Turkish man, you have to tame your girlfriend by chaining her naked to your dining table, and then father a dozen children with various members of your harem. When they are grown up, you could have them help out in your spice/espionage business. Of course even though this is a review of Ian Fleming’s 1957 novel, I would be remiss if I did not also mention Terence Young’s ultra-cool 1963 Bond film starring Sean Connery and Robert Shaw. Shaw is one of my favorite character actors and while he was fun to watch here, I cannot think of him without recalling his 1975 portrayal of Quint in Steven Spielberg’s film Jaws. Also noteworthy was the delightful Daniela Bianchi who played Tatiana Romanova. Connery has said that this was his favoriet Bond film. Along with Irma Bunt, Rosa Klebb was an inspiration for the character of Frau Farbissina from the Austin Powers series.
Ian Fleming’s fourth novel, From Russia with Love stands as a captivating spy thriller, a testament to the intrigue and tension of the Cold War era. The book explores the harsh realities of the spy game, where loyalties are fluid, danger is a constant companion, and personal and professional lines often blur.Once the action moves from Istanbul to the Orient Express, the plot is non stop action. Fleming creates premise after premise with a large cast of characters so there never is a loss for plot development or new adventures for Bond to get embroiled in. Gleaning from his own experience as a spy during World War II, Fleming's stories are accurate and detailed, not just a plot of action upon action. Of course there is the action and the scrapes that James Bond walks away unscathed from, but there are also scenes in which Fleming pays close attention to detail, making the buildup all the more thrilling. Most From Russia with Love book covers have either focussed on Tatiana or been movie tie-ins featuring Sean Connery. Instead, I focussed on the code machine that lures Bond to Istanbul. The code machine’s plug-board in the foreground hints of the complex plot that Bond has to escape. Pearson, John (1967). The Life of Ian Fleming: Creator of James Bond. London: Jonathan Cape.
