Iris Murdoch was a distinguished philosopher-novelist whose work earned her major British literary honours (Booker, Whitbread, James Tait Black), civic titles (CBE, DBE), and global recognition (Shakespeare Prize, Golden PEN). Her philosophy continues to be studied, while her fictions remain cornerstones of 20th-century English literature—profoundly influencing both academia and the public imagination. The Message to the Planet (1989) is a philosophical literary novel centered on the enigmatic Marcus Vallar, a former mathematician and artist who retreats from society and re-emerges as a healer and mystic figure. His sudden act of curing a dying man sets off waves of fascination, anxiety, and reverence among his friends and followers. …

Levy, a consistent friend of both Iris Murdoch and John Bayley, would write the novelist's obituary for The Independent in February 1999. Inscribed by Author(s). …
