Description: |
This volume comprises "Iris" and "Iris and the Friends", two memoirs of the philosopher and novelist Iris Murdoch, who suffered from Alzheimer's disease. Written by her husband, the memoirs are at times unbearably moving, at times poignantly comical. |
Synopsis: |
In 1998 and 1999 John Bayley wrote two best-selling, critically acclaimed memoirs of his wife, the great philosopher and novelist Iris Murdoch, who had been suffering from Alzheimer's disease since 1996. In this edition, Iris and Iris and the Friends are published in one volume for the first time. At times unbearably moving, at times poignantly comical, the two memoirs provide a fitting memorial for Dame Murdoch, an enchanting portrait of a remarkable marriage and an inspiration for anyone whose life is affected by the tragedy of Alzheimer's. |
