Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. With remarkable tenderness, John Bayley recreates his passionate love affair with Iris Murdoch--world-renowned writer and philosopher, and his wife of forty-two years--and poignantly describes the dimming of her brilliance due to Alzheimer's disease. Elegy for Iris is a story about the ephemeral beauty of youth and the sobering reality of what it means to grow old, but its ultimate power is that Bayley discovers great hope and joy in his celebration of Iris's life and their love. In its grasp of life's frailty and its portrayal of one of the great literary romances of this century, Elegy for Iris is a mesmerizing work of art that will be read for generations. A melodious, hugely affecting tribute to the late Dame Iris Murdoch, one of the greatest writers of her time, written by her devoted husband of 42 years. "Full of spirit, generous, and resilient."--Gail Caldwell, "The Boston Globe." Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
