Pressestimmen

"It isn't all brainy fantasising in Murdochland; there's wild swimming, appalling sandwiches, death, madness and sex." (Guardian)"How bloody good her novels are – how intelligent, how lucent, how divinely crazy. They’re fun – I’d forgotten that" (Sarah Waters Guardian)"Dazzlingly entertaining and inventive" (The Times)"One of the most ambitious tours de force in many years... There are pages one races through to see what happens. She is a virtuoso at description" (Daily Mail)"There is no doubt in my mind that Iris Murdoch is one of the most important novelists now writing in English...The power of her imaginative vision, her intelligence and her awareness and revelation of human truth are quite remarkable" (The Times)

This is the first book I've read that is by Iris Murdoch. Because I always used to come across her name in texts about "philosophical literature", I thought I'd be missing something if I didn't read a book by this author. Maybe this is the reason why my expectations were so high. Well, I liked it first, but then I started getting irritated: the representation of especially female characters was so unlikely. Women are weak and have no pride at all! And the way they are in love/relationship is sooo, excuse me, humiliatingly low and unreal. Some events are chewed like a chewing gum, and one gets tired of reading the same thing again and again. But then they take a somewhat gothic turn and one is in the story again, just in order to forget the gothic and start reading another imploring, vague monologue of a self-less woman.But, as I said, this can also be only my feelings due to my high expectations before I started reading Murdoch. Trying not to be too judgemental... maybe you people will have different experiences reading this novel. So have fun!

I'm not entirely sure how to describe this novel, though I absolutely loved every word of it. It's kind of about a 60-ish man named Charles Arrowby, who has retired from a glittering career in the London theater and gone to live by the sea. The book is his journal -- mostly focusing early on about his thoughts on women and how totally wonderful he is. At first, I liked him, then I realized he was the most egotistical and jealous person I have ever encountered -- the combination resulted, for him, in a trail of women totally mad about him that he used and then tossed. All but one, a woman named "Hartley," who dumped him first when they were both young and then became his life-long obsession. When he discovers her living in the village with a jealous and abusive husband, he goes completely crazy and tries to kidnap her and convince her to stay with him forever. I kept hoping he might learn from the experience that women aren't toys and that they don't all worship him just because HE thinks he's so great. He doesn't, though. The book ends with him totally unchanged by all the bizarre and tragic things that happen to him (and already on his way to hooking up with another woman who worships him). If this book hadn't been written the way it was, and I cannot describe what made it so, I would've tossed it aside in disgust over the main character's personality. But instead, I couldn't put it down. Remarkable -- that's the best word to describe it. Magical and bizarre. Read this book!

Although this book is overly long and not perfectly structured, it makes up for these deficiencies by a degree of passion and intellect sorely missing from much contemporary fiction. The novel concerns a retired theater director who moves to the seashore in order to contemplate his life. He recalls how an adolescent love which he greatly idealized prohibited him from committing himself completely to any of the important women in his life. Coincidentally, he meets the woman again and tries to resume his love affair but she won't have him. He passionately refuses to let her reject him this time and holds her prisoner in his house. When his friends from London come to visit him at this time, the situation deteriorates into an amusing farce but with serious overtones.In spite of the man's delusions, his passion is sublime; his deluded behavior is paradoxically magnificent. When he finally he comes to grips with the reality, both he and the reader are very much saddened, although enlightened.It's really pleasurable to read such a complex novel that is witty and compassionate and in the final analysis, wise.

This is my first Iris Murdoch novel, and it will not be my last. The theme, plot and characterzation of lost love, revenge and strength through suffering was something I could identify with. There is an almost ethereal quality to Murdoch's writing. Her characters: Charles, James, Titus, Lizzie, Rosina, Hartley, etc.. are colorful, but yet they are ghostly, wraithlike. You can't have a physical grasp on them; they will not allow it. The only thing that Murdoch allows you is to share in her character's experiences, their longings and dreams. This book makes you look hard at the character's ethics and fashions in which they choose to live their lives. It makes you ask: "Is what happens to these characters deserving?" This book is rich in description, introspective, wise and has a solitary element of aloneness as well as fantastic English prose that make it a standard bearer (my opinion) to which other present-day novels are judged.
