The Responsibilities of an Author of Fiction

When you write fiction, by what code are you held? What principles bind your work into a coherent whole? Do you need principles at all or can you write an anarchic story line governed by no other law except that it should be exciting to read? Should you analyze and agonize or should you just let your mind take its course along some route no matter how rough a track it may follow - a little like this sentence? I am writing here not of the great genius author but of the plodding novelist, 99% perspiration, 1% inspiration, whose chief concern is to get the work out on time to a publisher who may accept it, that is, an author who cannot afford to hear the lovely whooshing sound of a deadline racing by, as Douglas Adams put it.

Let's just think of young adult fiction, which is what I write. Young adult fiction is intended to be read by those who, as we grown-ups like condescendingly to say, are at an 'impressionable age'. Let's measure up our standards against the only moral code that most of us know, the ten commandments. Of course this is a religious code too. First, we recognise that the ten commandments are distinct from a code of laws, such as the Humarrabi code which includes such gems as 'If a slave say to his master: "You are not my master," if they convict him his master shall cut off his ear' a law from 3750 years ago. The ten commandments are more a set of encouragements or exhortations, of which perhaps only five should be attempted at any one time. Let's ignore the clearly religious commandments such as 'I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. Do not have any other gods before me'. Instead we can progress to more practical matters.

What about 'You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not acquit anyone who misuses his name'? Okay, this suggests that when the mean and wicked father in your tale returns home to find that his son, in pure self defence, has set up a 1000 volt electric fence around his house, he must not say 'Christ all bloody mighty'. On the other hand he could without violating this commandment shout 'Fuck you', perhaps a more likely though still less rational response. Right you are then, no blasphemous swearing or keep it to a minimum in your novels for young adults - if you are to obey the ten commandments.

Turning to the next commandment, we have, 'Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. For six days shall you labour and do all your work, but the seventh is a Sabbath to the Lord your God, you shall not do any work - you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns.' Obedience to this, especially the rather obscure reference to aliens (extra-terrestrials?), might well interrupt the flow of the narrative. Of course the narrative flow may well fail due to much more mundane events if you were true to real life. For example in the American civil war, the greatest army ever assembled in that part of the world got tired on July 16th 1861, sat down or dispersed, many to pick blackberries out of boredom. Is this story true? Actually, yes, but we return to the truth and how it should be treated elsewhere. Whatever, it would be quite a challenge to hold the reader's interest in even a James Bond if he were to keep the Sabbath, female slaves or no female slaves. The Aston Martin running out of petrol would lack persuasive impact. So probably this commandment of observing the Sabbath must go by the wayside.

Honour your father and your mother. Now this is an interesting one. There can be no doubt that any hero absolutely has to be nice to his mother and maybe also to his father - but definitely his mother and to honour her. 'You leave my mother out of this, or I'll drill you fuller of holes than a sieve' is an immortal Hollywood line. At any rate the hero must honour his mother so long as she is not a monster. I mean, Haggis MacBeth, the only son of Lady Macbeth, could probably distance himself from his mum without attracting too much disapproval. (Again this statement raises the question of truth: was Lady Macbeth really the monster that Shakespeare made her out to be?). A heroine has possibly less of an absolute requirement to honour her mother, especially if the mother is Clytemnestra. Perhaps a heroine has more need to honour her father in order to be a proper and successful heroine. So the verdict on this commandment is that it can be followed with impunity, though it would be boring if taken to extremes.

You shall not kill. Now this is a right bastard, as the saying goes. You might as well forget it immediately unless you add the little word 'except......'. Certainly the Catholic Church had some explaining to do when they used to exhort the population to make black puddings of the blood of Protestants; either they do not take their own teaching seriously or they admit the word 'except'. The Protestants themselves, when not providing the ingredients of black puddings, were great burners of witches. But why was burning the choice of death for witches? Because there is an exhortation in the bible that men of the Church should not spill blood. If you burnt someone, you did not, literally, spill their blood, did you? So went the argument. Within your own novels, such reasoning would dismiss you as a crank or as a writer making a poor attempt at wit. So, what may we reasonably conclude? Notwithstanding the commandment against killing, your villains can strangle, shoot and murder, but surely not your heroes (or even the 'goodies').Or perhaps the hero may kill but feel remorse, or the opposition may die at the hero's or heroine's hands in self-defence or to defend another? So we must admit the word 'except'. Without it, there would barely be a 'crimi' written and people would have to devote themselves to reading decent novels instead. This would be a pity.

Looking down the list of commandments, we come now to, 'You shall not commit adultery'. To digress for once a moment, there was a 'Wicked bible' published in 1631 in England which had a misprint in it and read 'Thou shalt commit adultery'. When this scandalous error was detected, the print run was immediately recalled by order of the King and almost all the copies burnt. Nevertheless, this edition of the Bible would seem to have had an impact far beyond its circulation, especially when we consider that only 11 copies are extant. The same bible also referred in Deuteronomy to God's 'great arse' instead of 'greatness'. The influence of this latter misprint is not known but would provide an interesting research project, a posteriori, so to speak, for those interested in these matters. To return to the first misprint, should adultery be condemned, or even referred to, in books for the young? Of course many youthful readers may have seen adultery at first hand in real life, since the most popular game of the suburbs appears to be musical beds (a variation on musical chairs whose rules are similar and can be imagined by the reader). But if adultery is to be condemned, it must first be portrayed, providing a dilemma for the author. In fact since hero and heroine tend to be very youthful in novels for young adults, the problem may not arise in connection with them. But how should one portray adultery in their parents, for example? Should one miss out all reference to it; should the story line be so influenced by your moral considerations that adultery should be banned from the pages of books for young adults? Should they be protected to this extent? Should young adult novels be a flight from reality or should they be ready to prepare teenagers to face reality? Novels should surely be neither one nor the other but as a writer you must sometimes face the question 'is this morally suitable?' even though inclusion within your book of something on the wrong side of the bedclothes is an accurate reflection of the world. Unlike some Victorians, with all their enviable certainties, we do not generally set out to write moral tracts disguised as novels. Which wins, the moral or the storyline imperative?

The next commandment is not so troublesome, 'You shall not steal'. This raises no moral problems in today's world. The banker-gansters ('banksters') have perfected stealing to such a fine art that, to use the words of the Arabian nights 'if it were written with a needle in the corner of the eye, it would serve as a lesson to the circumspect'. Stealing is so much a part of modern finance that no novel dealing with that aspect of the modern world can miss out stealing without becoming completely unrealistic. No matter what subject you broach, there is bound to be a perverted financial interest somewhere in it. Of course, the hero or heroine may not steal, save in the Robin Hood style (now commuted into 'to take from the bankers and give back to the investors'). Of course, to steal can certainly take on an heroic appeal, if the amount stolen is great enough. This can generate an 'anti-hero' which could make for a great young adult novel, because it cocks a snook at authority. So my advice would be that petty stealing should be frowned upon, but stealing on the grand scale, especially by outwitting the thick-headed establishment, is quite legitimate in a young adult novel. I also have the impression that the ten commandments really refer to petty stealing. When Jacob steals the birthright from Esau, a major theft, he is something of a hero.

Now we come to 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour.' It is funny isn't it, how half-heartedly the English of the bible has been revised. This commandment is not intended to imply that it is perfectly okay to circulate nasty stories about the family down the street - but not the old man next door. Actually, this commandment against slandering others would seem to be a rule which wipes out almost all journalism. Rita Skeeter in Harry Potter is a really nice example of what I mean. I think that slander rewarded could make a great story-line so long as ultimately, in Book 3, the slanderer is exposed as an immoral monster (or a financial analyst or similar).

To crown all these exhortations, we end with 'You shall not covet your neighbour's house; you shall not covet your neighbour's wife, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbour.' The idea that your neighbour's wife may be classed with his ox and donkey (or Chevrolet Corvette) is interesting and may cause comment, but let that pass. At all events, the Ten Commandments try to contain human nature and keep society on the rails - and this is never more obvious than here, in this last commandment. Exciting young adult novels are very often about what is pushing society off the rails, through human nature out of control. So I feel absolutely no need to attempt to hold to this one in my young adult novels. King David is a hero in the bible and he didn't hold to it. He fancied his neighbour's wife when he saw her in a bikini in the swimming pool and you can read the bible for the rest. Nowadays of course it would turn out that she was a whizz-kid lawyer and he'd get his butt sued off for so much as glancing at her.

So where does this leave me - and you? It would seem that the Ten Commandments are like items in a supermarket. You take what you want and leave the rest.

James Bond and Philosophy (Popular Culture and Philosophy) $14.98 “Bond. James Bond.” Since Sean Connery first uttered that iconic phrase in Dr. No, more than one quarter of the world’s population has seen a 007 film. Witty and urbane, Bond seduces and kills with equal ease — often, it seems, with equal enthusiasm. This enthusiasm, coupled with his freedom to do what is forbidden to everyone else, evokes fascinating philosophical questions. Here, 15 witty, thought-provoking essays discuss hidden issues in Bond’s world, from his carnal pleasures to his license to kill. Among the lively topics explored are Bond’s relation to existentialism, including his graduation “beyond good and evil”; his objectification of women; the paradox of breaking the law in order to ultimately uphold it like any “stupid policeman”; the personality of 007 in terms of Plato’s moral psychology; and the Hegelian quest for recognition evinced by Bond villains. A reference guide to all the Bond movies rounds out the book’s many pleasures.

Ian Fleming & James Bond $15.98 The Cold War agent of pulp fiction and the hero of more than a dozen movies, James Bond, also known as 007, is one of pop culture's most recognizable icons. Doubtless better known from film than from Ian Fleming's novels, the character has become a lightning rod for criticism from all camps. And yet somehow his popularity remains intact. But who is James Bond? Ian Fleming and James Bond: The Cultural Politics of 007 is an entertaining and revealing examination of the many facets of Bond. Before Bond became a cinematic icon, he was the protagonist of a series of thrillers that appeared during the time of Britain's decline as a major power and the heating up of the Cold War. Fleming's character gave expression to biases and anxieties that continue to shape our political worldview in ways both obvious and covert. Fifteen spirited and engaging essays—all new to this volume—cover topics including Bond's Britishness, James Bond and JFK, homosexual panic and lesbian Bond-age, the James Bond lifestyle, and Bond's brands. The contributors are Alexis Albion, Dennis W. Allen, James Chapman, Edward P. Comentale, Vivian Halloran, Jaime Hovey, Aaron Jaffe, Christoph Lindner, Andrew Lycett, Patrick O'Donnell, Craig N. Owens, Brian Patton, Judith Roof, Stephen Watt, and Skip Willman.

The Politics of James Bond $14.98 The adventures and antics of James Bond have provided the world with many of the most gripping story lines of the last half-century. Fleming’s novels were bestsellers in their day, and the Bond films have been even more popular, becoming the most enduring and successful film franchise in history. By some estimates, half of the world’s population has seen a James Bond movie. A fascinating and accessible account of this global phenomenon, The Politics of James Bond uses the plots and characterizations in the novels and the blockbuster films to place Bond in a historical, cultural, and political context. Jeremy Black charts and explores how the settings and the dynamics of the Bond adventures have changed over time in response to shifts in the real-world environment in which the fictional Bond operates. Sex, race, class, and violence are each important factors, as Agent 007 evolves from Cold War warrior to foe of SPECTRE and eventually to world defender pitted against megalomaniacal foes. The development of Bond, his leading ladies, and the major plots all shed light on world political attitudes and reflect elements of the real espionage history of the period. This analysis of Bond’s world and his lasting legacy offers an insightful look at both cultural history and popular entertainment.

James Bond in the 21st Century $14.98 ** COMPLETELY UNAUTHORIZED ** The staying power of the world’s most dashing secret agent and the evolution of the James Bond franchise are explored in this smart yet nostalgic collection of essays. Leading writers, including Raymond Benson, J. A. Konrath, Raelynn Hillhouse, and John Cox, discuss the 10 sexiest Bond girls, the best villains, and the controversy surrounding the latest actor to play James Bond. Topics covered range from the playful—how to build a secret lair and avoid the perennial mistakes made by would-be world dominators—to the thought-provoking, such as Bond’s place in the modern world, his Oedipal tendencies and perceived misogyny, and the unerring allure of the charming spy.

The Science of James Bond $12.98 The science behind the gadgets, exploits, and enemies of the world's greatest spy From the sleek Aston Martin that spits out bullets, nails, and passengers at the push of a button to the microjet that makes hairpin turns to avoid a heat-seeking missile, the science and technology of James Bond films have kept millions of movie fans guessing for decades. Are these amazing feats and gadgets truly possible? The Science of James Bond takes you on a fascinating excursion through the true science that underlies Bond's most fantastic and off-the-wall accoutrements. The acclaimed science-fiction authors Lois Gresh and Robert Weinberg provide a highly entertaining, informative look at the real-world achievements and brilliant imaginations behind such singular Bond gadgets as the buzz-saw Rolex, the car that turns into a submarine, and the ever-popular rocket-firing cigarette. They examine hundreds of Q Division's ingenious inventions; analyze Bond's astonishing battles beneath the earth and sea, in the skies, and even in outer space; and ask intriguing questions that lead to enlightening discussions about the limits of science, the laws of nature, and the future of technology. Filled with entertaining anecdotes from Bond movie shoots and supplemented with "tech" ratings for all of the Bond movies, The Science of James Bond separates scientific fact from film fantasy--with some very surprising results.

The James Bond Phenomenon $29.98 Sean Connery's tuxedo, Ursula Andress' bikini, Oddjob's bowler hat, and Q's gadgets are just a few defining features of the 007 world examined in The James Bond Phenomenon. Drawn from the fields of literary, film, music, and cultural studies, the essays in this collection range from revitalized readings of Ian Fleming's original spy novels to the analysis of Pussy Galore's lesbianism, Miss Moneypenny's filmic feminism, and Pierce Brosnan's techno-fetishism. Together, the essays not only consider the James Bond novels and films in relation to their historical, political, and social contexts from the cold-war period forward, but also examine the classic Bond canon from an array of theoretical perspectives.

In order to stop Goldfinger, Bond has to survive several perilous situations, including a huge, deadly laser. Goldfinger is one of the most popular films in the James Bond series, and it set the tone not only for the rest of the series but also for most of the action/adventure films of the late '60s and early '70s. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Movie Guide laser beam, Oddjob's razor-sharp bowler hat, and Bond's modified Aston Martin car, the film is quite possibly the most memorable Bond outing, and would be famously parodied decades later in the AUSTIN POWERS series, particularly GOLDMEMBER.

James Bond: The Authorised Biography $3.95 John Pearson is a Cambridge graduate. He worked on the Economist Intelligence Unit and as a BBC trainee producer before working for Ian Fleming as his assistant on the “Atticus” column for theiSunday Times/i.The story of the man behind the myth, the most famous spy of all time — James Bond.brbrIt was a strong face, certainly — the eyes pale grey and very cold, the mouth was hard, and the dark hair — grey-streaked now — still fell in the authentic comma over the forehead.brbrThis is how John Pearson reacted to his first encounter with the real James Bond. At the time, like most of the world, he assumed that James Bond was nothing more than a character in Fleming’s highly charged imagination. Then he began to have his doubts, doubts of such a pitch that the British secret service was trying to warn him off the scene. Despite this, he finally became convinced that James Bond was not only real, but actually alive.brbrPearson went on to write the bestselling authorized biography of Ian Fleming. Then, thanks to a change in policy within the secret service he was invited to embark upon a companion volume to his life of Fleming. This resulting book is bound to become one of the most extraordinary biographies of our times — the authorized life of a myth — the official biography of James Bond.brbrThe biography reveals situations and incidents only hinted at in Ian Fleming’s books; and it promises to reveal a side of Bond never seen before: the story of his life, thebBonds of Glencoe/b; the night he lost his wallet and his virginity in Paris; his first assignment; his duel with the S.S.; his women, scandals and tastes — it’s all here, for the first time ever.
