First edition of the ninth novel in Ian Flemingâs James Bond series. Octavo, original black cloth. Boldly signed by eleven cast members of the 1977 film adaptation on the title page and facing page, including: Roger Moore, Caroline Munro, Olga Bisera, Sue Vanner, Shane Rimmer, Eva Rueber-Staier, Marilyn Galsworthy, Valerie Leon,… Edward de Souza, Vernon Dobtcheff and director John Glen. Fine in a near fine dust jacket with light toning and rubbing. Written with Vivienne Michel. Jacket design by Richard Chopping. A unique example. In light of the novel's immense presence as a classic thriller, it's amusing to learn that it was at first poorly received. The novel was banned in several countries due to its heightened sexual writing. The reception was so bad that Fleming wrote to Michael Howard of the Jonathan Cape publishing company to explain why he wrote the book: "I had become increasingly surprised to find my thrillers, which were designed for an adult audience, being read in schools, and that young people were making a hero out of James Bond . So it crossed my mind to write a cautionary tale about Bond, to put the record straight in the minds particularly of younger readers . the experiment has obviously gone very much awry" (Chancellor 2005). Upon Fleming's request, no reprints were made until after his death in 1964. It was the basis for the tenth film in the James Bond series, starring Roger Moore, Barbara Bach and Curt Jürgens. It was directed by Lewis Gilbert and the screenplay was written by Christopher Wood and Richard Maibaum.
