I agree wholeheartedly about Fleming's Bond books.
You Only Live Twice (completely different plot than
movie) == noir
************** Raymond Chandler and Fleming had something
like a long distance friendship going on and exchanged mail.
Chandler liked Casino Royale, I think the first Bond book.
You talk about noir and how a book was not like the movie. In
Casino Royale Bond is not much of the stereotype hardboiled
hero at all. No ass-kicking or shooting. And he loses the
girl at the end and it haunts him.
