The 18 February was Len Deighton's 82nd birthday - I'm sure readers of his books all over the world will wish to raise a glass.....
Elswhere, readers of the blog are recommended to get hold of the latest edition Double-O-Seven magazine, which contains a special feature on James Bond - Graphic Design by Raymond Hawkey, written by Deighton's biographer Edward Milward-Oliver. As well as being well written, it is beautifully illustrated with examples of Hawkey's work, not least the Pan Bond covers.
This is a blog about the books, film and world of British thriller and spy novel author Len Deighton, writer of The Ipcress File, Funeral in Berlin, SS-GB, Bomber, Berlin Game and many other books. This blog also covers the spy thriller genre and the Cold War more widely. It is a companion website to the main Deighton Dossier archive (link on the right). It is the only website + blog endorsed by the author himself! Content (c) Rob Mallows 2008-22 unless otherwise stated.
