Released: New Cover Art for The Many Facets of Diamonds Are Forever
What joy! A collection on my favorite Bond book, the one with most wit. This sparkling collection offers interesting perspectives both on the film and on the more lackluster but still worthwhile novel of that title. Both novel and film focus on America during its age of unrivaled power. — Jeremy Black, University of Exeter, author of The World of James Bond: The Lives and Times of 007 The Many Facets of Diamonds Are Forever offers an abundance of riches for both Fleming scholars and fans. In particular, Guy Hamilton’s 1971 adaptation of Fleming’s novel receives considerable attention and, in the phrasing of one of the volume’s fine contributors, proves to be a ‘key transitional film for the Bond series.’ Readers and viewers alike will find much of value in this anthology. — Stephen Watt, Indiana University (Interview with the author, available at https://jamesbondradio.com/inside-oliver-bucktons-new-book-the-many-facets-of-diamonds-are-forever/)
