Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First published in 1987, this is a second impression of later the same year. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, spine sunned, corners slightly bruised. Not price clipped (£11.95), no inscriptions, internally clean tight… and square, overall a vg+ copy. 601pp. It's the midsummer ball at Oxford, and a group of men and women, friends since university days, have gathered under the stars. Included in this group is David Crimond, a genius and fervent Marxist. Years earlier the friends had persuaded David to write a philosophical and political book on their behalf. But opinions and loyalties have changed, and on this summer evening the long resting ghosts of the past come careering back into the present. Jacket by Tom Phillips (ilustrador).

Soft cover. Condición: Fine. 1st Edition. Wrappers. Edition limited to 225 numbered copies, produced by Vivian Ridler at the Perpetua Press. A rediscovery of one of Iris Murdoch's earliest academic appearances in print - a lecture to the Oxford University Socratic Club printed in The Socratic, 1952, antedating by a year her firs…t book, Sartre. "What answer does existentialism offer? It offers no answer. Its concept of value is problematic, a question mark. But it is an expression of a passionate and sincere desire to keep to the middle way, to preserve the values of an innocent and vital individualism in a world which seems to menace them from both sides." Dedicated to Stella Aldwinckle. Robin Waterfield and Iris Murdoch had known each other since the Forties; she had a lasting fondness for his friend Tambimuttu. One of Waterfield's final clutch of published poems, "Iris" in John Doe's Last Plea (1999), is addressed to his old friend: "Dear Iris, / you have shed at last / all the encumbering weight / of acting as a grown-up should; / a task you never quite accomplished, / but blessedly remain'd / always the sharp observant child . . .".

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of largely white jacket and spine, corners rubbed with small loss, some slight overall creasing and browning, price clipped, small gift inscription to top ffep, internally…clean, tight and almost square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 328pp. Montague Small, an obsessive writer of detective thrillers, mourns his lately dead wife, who may or may not have been unfaithful to him. His attempts at meditation are a failure. He detests his fictional detective. His interest in his neighbour's difficulties and his neighbour's wife appear to be his only consolations after all. The neighbour, Blaise Gavender, is an amateur psychotherapist who has seen through himself. Has Blaise the courage to change his life and become an honest man? What is honesty in any case? Blaise's wife Harriet lives for love, love of her husband, love of her son. She if fond of Monty too. Emily McHugh is quite another matter. She too lives for love, for love and justice and revenge, aided and incited by her ambiguous friend Constance Pinn. Emily's son Luca, a very disturbed child, becomes the subject of a tug of war between two possessive women. Edgar Demornay, a distinguished scholar, also blunders into the fray, he adores Monty and falls in love with Monty's women. A deed of violence finally solves many problems. This is a story of different loves and of how a man may need two women in such a way that he can be happy with neither. Sacred and profane love are related opposites, the one enjoyed renders the other necessary, so that the ever unsatisfied heart swings constantly to and fro. Dame Jean Iris Murdoch DBE (1919-99), was an Irish / British novelist and philosopher. Murdoch is best known for her novels about good and evil, sexual relationships, morality, and the power of the unconscious. A classic, in John Sutcliffe's decorative jacket. Jacket by John Sutcliffe (ilustrador).

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. Pages starting to embrown from the edge, (Tom Phillips) dustwrapper slightly nicked at foot of spine. Signed by the author on the title-page and inscribed by her to Paul Levy and Penelope Marcus, "Paul & Penny with much love Iris". Dedicated to Audhild and Borys… Villers. "It's difficult to remember when I first met Iris and John," Paul Levy has written, "- in my experience, they were inseparable. I am certain we met in the late summer of 1968 at the Oxford house in Charlbury Road of Lord and Lady David Cecil - though it's just possible that we had met earlier, in 1963, with a gaggle of Oxford philosophers at a party at Edith Grove, World's End, in Chelsea."

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Spine faded, covers slightly marked, some spotting of front free endpaper, prelims and edges. Second impression, from the month after publication, priced in pencil on the front free endpaper by the author's friend and sometime publisher, the antiquarian bookseller Robin Waterfield, "1st ed £1", a…nd with the author's flamboyant inscription on the title-page, "Paul and Penny Levy with my love Iris Murdoch", and, on the opposite page, "on Paul's [37th] birthday 26 Feb 1978". "It's difficult to remember when I first met Iris and John," Paul Levy has written, "- in my experience, they were inseparable. I am certain we met in the late summer of 1968 at the Oxford house in Charlbury Road of Lord and Lady David Cecil - though it's just possible that we had met earlier, in 1963, with a gaggle of Oxford philosophers at a party at Edith Grove, World's End, in Chelsea." Levy, a consistent friend of both Iris Murdoch and John Bayley, would write the novelist's obituary for The Independent in February 1999. Under the Net was her first published novel. "Set in the intellectual demi-monde of London, where struggling writers may rub shoulders with successful bookies, and film starlets with frantic philosophers, this is the happy-go-lucky story of Jake Donoghue. Meeting again, after some years, an old flame Anna, he is led into a series of fantastic adventures: he takes part in a nocturnal pub-crawl round the City of London; helps a rich eccentric to escape from hospital and kidnaps an intelligent, if somewhat passé film-star dog" (publisher's blurb). Dedicated to Raymond Queneau. Inscribed by Author(s).

No Binding. Condición: Very Good. Two autograph letters signed to "Dear Mr Owen": 4pp. 8vo, Steeple Aston, [11 August18 September 1972]. "I was touched and moved to hear of your friend Matthew Malowa and I will certainly write to him. What courage & spirit he is showing in these terrible circumstances . . ." Her second letter re…ports that she has received "a very good reply from him" and that he hopes to hear from Owen and from Anne Tibble. "Also that something he said in his last letter to you was from fear of being indicted under some 'prison offences' rule. He was to stand some sort of 'trial' on August 30." Anne Tibble, co-editor and co-biographer of John Clare, recalls the sequence of events in her 1979 diary/memoir Alone: "A letter from Matthew Malowa. This man is a Zimbabwean-born journalist, picked up on the Zambian border some five years ago - for what crime? He is in Salisbury gaol under the Smith regime, without charge or trial. He wrote to me after the publication of my African-English Literature [African-English Literature: a short survey and anthology, 1965]." She campaigned with Amnesty for his release. "I do not know how to find most of the addresses he asks for, but I give him Iris Murdoch's, Amnesty International's London one and Evan Owen's. These write kindly letters to him which can do no harm whatever." Matthew Malowa was imprisoned in 1964 at the same time as Robert Mugabe and Emmerson Mnangagwa. Tibble asks, "for what crime?" He was accused of blowing up a Rhodesian steam locomotive at Fort Victoria ("Neither terrorist nor hijacker," acknowledges Tibble, "this journalist is certainly what he himself would call a freedom fighter"), and history would place him at the centre of Mnangagwa's Crocodile Gang. After seven years in HM Remand Prison, Salisbury, he was repatriated, courtesy of Amnesty, to Zambia, where, Tibble records, he went into business with his brother running a garage. "He had become addicted to alcohol. From Zambia's independence celebrations he was returning home drunk, crashed his car and killed himself.". Inscribed by Author(s).
