Description

Stuart Cuno has decided to become good. Not believing in God, he invents his own methods, which include celibacy, chastity and the abandonment of a promising academic career. Stuart's step-brother Edward Baltram is tormented by guilt because he has, he believes, killed his best friend. He dreams sometimes of redemption, sometimes of suicide.

Reviews

"Iris Murdoch at her most artful, juggling philosophy and farce with knowledge and ease." --"Economist"
