Iris Murdoch? Why couldn’t I get Marie Antoinette instead! Don’t get me wrong blog she’s interesting and all but I can’t hide the fact that I’m jealous of the people who got Ghandi or Buddy Holly.
So far my research of her has shown that she’s an English author and philosopher who was strongly influenced by Plato, Freud, Simone Weil and Sartre.
She suffered from Alzheimer’s in her later years and eventually died in 1999, which wasn’t that long ago actually. I’ve ordered her book – The Sea, the sea, which won a booker prize and have bought the film – Iris, which is based on her husband’s memories of her.
