Following the success of its Fleming omnibuses, Penguin Modern
Classics are now publishing four more novels individually, celebrating
Fleming's brilliant imagination and a group of books which have
kept their panache but to modern readers now also speak volumes
about a post-War and increasingly post-Empire country.

Blurb
There can be no more potent figure in post-War British fiction
than Ian Fleming's James Bond. For fifty years, for better
or worse, he has created a sense of heroism which has shaped
(or warped) the male mind to a degree that is impossible
to imagine British self-identity without it.
