AUTHOR

John Bayley

SUMMARY

John Bayley began writing this book late at night while his wife, the beloved novelist Iris Murdoch, succumbed to Alzheimer's Disease. In a Proustian irony, as Iris was losing her memory, Bayley was flooded with vivid recollections -- an inverse relationship that has created literature of the most extraordinary resonance. Avoiding the gloom of her illness and death, Bayley luminously brings to life the remarkable story of a philosopher whose novels celebrated the goodness of everyday existence.John Bayley is the author of 'Iris and Her Friends: A Memoir of Memory and Desire' with ISBN 9780786224739 and ISBN 0786224738.
