Zrno utjehe

Ian Fleming

The collection "A Grain of Comfort" brings together in one place all the short prose dedicated to Bond that Fleming wrote during his lifetime, revealing the full spectrum of his literary creation.

From the story "Risk", a superb thriller condensed to its most essential elements, to "Hildebrand's Rarity", a character drama set on the high seas of the Indian Ocean, to the title story, a study of an everyday life tragedy in comparison to which even the exploits of secret agents seem banal to Bond himself, the collection "A Grain of Comfort" reveals the range, depth and maturity of Ian Fleming's writing skills. In the nine stories that the collection "A Grain of Comfort" brings together, every page is new, and each brings a new grain of surprise from the pen of the writer who reveals himself on these pages as a masterful chronicler of the Cold War and post-colonial era. Editor and translator Vladimir Cvetković Sever prepared this collection as a companion volume to the recently launched Algoritm edition, which brings Fleming's entire 007 series to Croatian readers for the first time.
