For Your Eyes Only

Five Secret Occasions in the Life of James Bond

By Ian Fleming

1960 - London - Jonathan Cape

7.5" by 5"; 252pp.

 

DETAILS

A first edition of this collection of short stories about James Bond, Ian Fleming's famous secret agent.

The collection contains five short stories: "From a View to a Kill", "For Your Eyes Only", "Quantum of Solace", "Risico" and "The Hildebrand Rarity". Four of the stories were adaptations of plots for a television series that was never filmed while the fifth Fleming had written previously but not published. Fleming undertook some minor experiments with the format, including a story written as an homage to an author he greatly admired, W. Somerset Maugham.

For Your Eyes Only was published on 11 April 1960 in the UK as a hardcover edition by publishers Jonathan Cape; it was 252 pages long and cost fifteen shillings. The subtitle, Five Secret Occasions in the Life of James Bond, was added for publication; 21,712 copies were printed and quickly sold out.

CONDITION

In a black cloth binding with original unclipped dustwrapper. Externally, in lovely condition with just some light bumping to the head of the spine. Dustwrapper is very smart with just some sunning. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Overall: NEAR FINE with a NEAR FINE dustwrapper.
