IRIS MURDOCH:The writer with an universal appeal.
Grudging admiration has long been a common response to Iris Murdoch's fiction. Most readers agree that she offers an unusual compound of pleasures: ingenious storytelling, elegant design, the provocations of myth and philosophy -- so many pleasures, in fact, that it may seem ungrateful to ask for still more. But as Frank Kermode has put it: each of her books contains "somewhere inside, the ghost of a major novel," and some people (although not Mr. Kermode) cannot quite forgive her for failing to make the spirit flesh.
