The Book Collector presents Bond: Behind the Iron Curtain, written and read by James Fleming. The story starts with the full-page attack on James Bond, Ian Fleming and the film of Dr No that appeared in the Russian daily paper, Izvestiya, even before the film had been released.

"Who is Mr Ian Fleming, the creator of this—to put it mildly—rubbish?" The whole Bond phenomenon is attacked as pornography, capitalist filth and anti-socialist poison. Here, translated into English for the first time, you will also hear the long Russian critique of the Bond films by Maja Turovskaya published in 1966, and the extremely interesting account that appeared in Prague the following year of Sean Connery’s rise to fame. A bonus is the Bulgarian attempt to publish a novel in which Bond was killed.

If you want to know about the "bourgeois inferiority complex" that was the standard party line to mock anyone who enjoyed the adventures of James Bond, this is the audiobook for you.

Praise for Bond: Behind the Iron Curtain, by James Fleming:

"Hilarious." (The Oldie)

"Beguiling." (William Boyd, The Spectator)

"What an amazing story!" (Nicolas Barker)

I spotted a review for this book calling it an ‘astonishing story’ so had to find out for myself - it did not disappoint!
A remarkable perspective on an author and character that we know so well, James Fleming uncovers some wonderful new details. As Ian Fleming’s nephew and a talented writer/editor himself, he brings real credibility to the story.
Well worth a listen for anyone interested in Bond or Soviet politics.

Fascinating story, brilliantly researched
