In “The Bi Who Loved Me: Bi-Erotic Possibilities in Ian Fleming’s James Bond Novels”, Ian Kinane offers a close reading of the bi-eroticism inherent in the literary James Bond canon. Kinane’s chapter is not concerned with “psychologising” Bond or with providing extensive source criticism of his creator, the author Ian Fleming, but argues that bisexual readings of the Bond texts in themselves provide an insight into the subversive possibilities of a literary (and cinematic) icon that has long been the purview of aggressively straight masculinity. While Kinane does not set out to offer a sensationalist case for Bond as an altogether closeted homosexual, as some critics do, his chapter examines the bi-erotic possibilities of the character James Bond and a number of the supporting male-on-male relationships Bond enjoys throughout the series. Kinane argues that the emergence of bisexuality within the Bond canon—a hitherto unacknowledged facet of Fleming’s writings—offers a means of destabilising pervasive erstwhile cultural assumptions about straight masculinity and its collocation with the Bond icon. Kinane’s approach priorities a “bisexual perspective”; that is, a particular way of looking at the Bond texts, rather than situating bisexuality specifically as something to be looked for. To that end, Kinane considers the literary Bond canon not from a rigid “either/or” perspective of binary thinking, but in terms of the “both/and” possibilities that a broader sexual identity palette provides for, embracing the paradoxes and uncertainties within his interpretive framework of the Bond icon.
