A definitive collection of poems by the major 20th-century novelist and philosopher, newly discovered in the attic of Murdoch’s former home. Ranging over nearly six decades, these searing, confessional poems balance craft with playfulness; psychological insight with Murdoch’s own personal feelings. As an autobiographical account, they are unlike anything else. They shine a new light on Iris Murdoch’s turbulent relationships with men and women, her decades-long marriage and extraordinary life. These radically honest poems are for anyone who have at one time or another gone soul-searching in the midst of heartbreak – and for those who have found solace in the quiet joys of friendship.
