Description - A Fairly Honourable Defeat (Vintage Classics Murdoch Series) by Iris Murdoch

Iris Murdoch's comic tale of moral dilemmas - now republished as part of the Vintage Classics Murdoch Series - six gorgeous editions of her best, funniest and most subversive novels published to mark her centenary.

'I feel there are demons around.'

Everyone is thinking about Julius King. For comfortable, long-married Hilda and Rupert, he is a mystery. For Morgan, Hilda's tormented sister, he is an obsession. For Morgan's abandoned husband, Tallis, he is the source of ruin. For Simon and Axel, deeply in love, he stirs up jealousy and unease. What is Julius thinking about? He's thinking about Hilda, Rupert, Morgan, Tallis, Simon and Axel, and they will not all survive his malevolent attention.

WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY GARTH GREENWELL
