Description

The writing of Iris Murdoch has long been of interest to both literature enthusiasts and students of philosophy. The years Murdoch spent studying philosophy at Oxford and Cambridge left an indelible imprint on her body of work, which is widely recognized as some of the best literature produced in 20th century Britain. This anthology of international essays addresses both Murdoch's philosophy and writing in the context of Continental philosophy and postmodern fiction. Many of these twelve essays resist the prevailing critical orthodoxies, introducing instead new hermeneutical theories with which to approach one of Britain's most revered authors.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
