    Extractions: Iris Murdoch (1919-1999) - in full Dame Jean Iris Murdoch, married name Mrs. J.O. Bailey British writer, university lecturer and prolific and highly professional novelist, Iris Murdoch dealt with everyday ethical or moral issues, sometimes in the light of myths. As a writer, she was a perfectionist who did not allow editors to change her text. Murdoch produced 26 novels in 40 years, the last written while she was suffering from Alzheimer disease. "She wanted, through her novels, to reach all possible readers, in different ways and by different means: by the excitement of her story, its pace and its comedy, through its ideas and its philosophical implications, through the numinous atmosphere of her own original and created worldthe world she must have glimpsed as she considered and planned her first steps in the art of fiction." (John Bailey in Elegy for Iris Iris Murdoch was born in Dublin - the name 'Murdoch' is essentially Scots Gaelic. Her mother, the former Irene Alice Richardson, was an Irishwoman who had trained as an opera singer. Wills John Hughes Murdoch, Iris's father, was an English civil servant who had been a cavalry officer in World War I. Following the war, he worked as a government clerk. The family moved to London, where Murdoch grew up in the western suburbs of Hammersmith and Chiswich.

Dublin, Ireland Somerville College, Oxford (classics, ancient history and philosophy); Newnham College, Cambridge Civil servant, lecturer at Oxford University She was a postgraduate student under Ludwig Wittgenstein. Murdoch brought philosophical rigour, ethical commitment and a huge intellect to fiction; on being asked how long she took off between books, she is said to have replied "about half an hour". Her many novels all feature mythic/symbolic elements and close, complex relationships: she won the Booker for Tempest-retelling The Sea, The Sea. In the last years of her life she descended into Alzheimer's (at first thinking it was simply writer's block), which she described while still lucid as "being in a very, very bad quiet place, a dark place". The first television came into her house in the year before her death.

    Extractions: Bradley Pearson, der 58-jährige Finanzbeamte, ist in Frühpension gegangen, um endlich sein großes Werk, sein Buch zu schreiben. Bislang hatte er zwar auch schon 3 Bücher veröffentlicht, sieht sich selbst auch als Schriftsteller; aber sein ganzes bisheriges Leben war eigentlich nur Vorbereitung, Übung für das, was er zu leisten imstande zu sein glaubt. Im Gegensatz zu ihm veröffentlich sein Freund Arnold Baffin jedes Jahr äußerst erfolgreich ein Buch - schnell hingeworfen, wie Bradley geringschätzig und auch neidisch vermerkt, keine Kunst sondern nur Handwerk. Doch als er gerade aus der Stadt verschwinden will, wird sein bis dato so beschaulich-ruhiges Leben auf den Kopf gestellt. Christin, seine Ex-Frau, ist zurück in London, ihr Bruder rückt ihm auf den Pelz, weil er sich erhofft, so wieder einen Platz an der Geldbörse seiner Schwester zu erobern, er wird erst in die Ehestreitigkeiten seines Freundes Arnold Baffin hineingezogen - um danach von dessen Frau beinahe verführt zu werden. Und seine Schwester steht plötzlich vor der Tür, mit dem Leben fertig, da sie ihren Mann verlassen hat. Kein Wunder, dass er sich überfordert fühlt. Doch noch etwas passiert, etwas, womit er nie gerechnet hätte: er verliebt sich rasend in die Tochter seines Freundes Arnold, Julian. Diese ist 20, er kennt sie von Kindesbeinen an - ihm ist klar, dass er niemals irgendjemandem von dieser Liebe erzählen darf.
