007 debut gets Gaelic translation
One of Britain's best-loved spy stories has been translated into Manx.
Ian Fleming's Casino Royale - which introduced the world to James Bond - is now available in Gaelg paperback.
Culture Vannin was given a 'licence to print' the 1953 book by the deceased author's estate, and translation lovingly undertaken by Bob Carswell.
The book is available to buy at Culture Vannin's headquarters in St John's.
It's one of a number of modern works spun in Manx - as Culture Vannin's Language Development Officer Adrian Cain explains:
Protections for local authority members, permitted development, and bees: 2026 Tynwald Day petitions in brief
All of Island's Christian denominations to be represented at special service
'Void of information' over windfarm proposals leading to misinformation
