Her characters are described with loving exactitude and in such depth that their struggles to define what it means to live a good life take on dramatic force.
New York Times
Iris Murdoch is incapable of writing without fascinating and beautiful colour
The Times
She believes in everything: true love, veridical visions, magic, monsters, pagan spirits. Her world is ignited by belief
Martin Amis

Philippa Gregory

Val Hennessy, Daily Mail
