"These two major novels--by one of the most influential British writers of the twentieth century--are ferociously dark comedies th…at combine playfulness with profundity. [] A SEVERED HEAD (1961) is one of Iris Murdoch's most entertaining works, tracing the turbulent emotional journey of Martin Lynch-Gibbon, a smug, prosperous London wine merchant and unfaithful husband, whose life is turned inside out when his wife leaves him for her psychoanalyst. The story takes bedroom farce to a new level of sophistication, with scenes that are both wickedly funny and emblematic of the way momentous moral issues play out in everyday life. [] The Booker Prizewinning THE SEA, THE SEA (1978) is set on the edge of England's North Sea, where egotistical Charles Arrowby, a big name in London's glittering theatrical world, has retreated into seclusion to write his memoirs. Arrowby's plans begin to unravel when he encounters his long-lost first love and finds himself increasingly besieged by his own fantasies, delusions, and obsessions. [] Both novels are tragicomic masterpieces that brilliantly dramatize how much our lives are governed by the lies we tell ourselves and by the all-consuming need for love, meaning, and redemption." [jacket copy] ASH: "Remarkable. One feels a power of intellect quite exceptional in a novelist."--The Sunday Times. TSTS: "Dazzlingly entertaining and inventive."--The Times of London. "One of Miss Murdoch's best novels. Murdoch was always balancing the demands of storytelling with the more urgent need to examine how the truth of a fleeting life reflected the larger, permanent truths of existence."--The New York Times. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding; a beautiful Knopf edition.
