Author: WILSON, A.N.
Title: Iris Murdoch - As I Knew Her
Description: London, Hutchinson. 2003, First Edition. (ISBN: 0091742463). Hard Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A Fine unmarked copy with age darkening to page edges with near Fine dustjacket which is not price clipped. First edition, first printing. 275 pages. 25 illustrations. In 1988, Iris Murdoch asked the author to be her biographer. This book is a tribute to the novelist he knew for 30 years - this is not Iris Murdoch the Alzheimer's patient, but Iris the Murdoch the witty conversationalist, the emotional chaotic and, above all, the writer. Both sad and farcical, this completely personal attempt to set the record straight gives us back the fiercely intelligent novelist and professional philosopher, and will cause amusement as it ruffles feathers. NOT EX LIB B2E. Fine/Near Fine.
