John Bayley, who was married to Iris Murdoch for over 40 years, has written one of the most extraordinary memoirs of recent years. With great compassion he recreates their passionate love affair and poignantly describes the mask that ineluctably descended over Iris’ being with the progression of her Alzheimer’s disease. It was Bayley’s accomplishment to find the glimmers of Iris’ old self that broke through the barriers of her disease, and to share with us his message of hope and joy.
