The Nice and the Good
By Iris Murdoch
$12.00
Iris Murdoch’s richly peopled novel revolves round a happily married couple, Kate and Octavian, and the friends of all ages attached to their household in Dorset.
The novel deals with love in its two aspects, the self-gratifying and the impersonal; – The Nice And The Good – as they are embodied in a fascinating array of paired characters. The Nice And The Good leads through stress and terror to a joyous and compassionate Midsummer Nights Dream conclusion, in which the couples all sort themselves out neatly and omnia vincit amor.
