A Fairly Honourable Defeat Zusammenfassung

A Fairly Honourable Defeat Iris Murdoch

In this dark comedy of errors, Iris Murdoch portrays the mischief wrought by Julius, a cynical intellectual who decides to demonstrate through a Machiavellian experiment how easily loving couples, caring friends, and devoted siblings can betray their loyalties.

As puppet master, Julius artfully plays on the human tendency to embrace drama and intrigue and to prefer the distraction of confrontations to the difficult effort of communicating openly and honestly.

A Fairly Honourable Defeat Bewertungen

The most important novelist writing in my time * A.S. Byatt *
A distinguished novelist of a very rare kind * Kingsley Amis *
Of all the novelists that have made their bow since the war she seems to me to be the most remarkable-behind her books one feels a power of intellect quite exceptional in a novelist * Sunday Times *
