The Bell (Vintage Classics Murdoch Series)

ebook

'In this holy community she would play the witch.'
Imber Court is a quiet haven for lost souls, a utopia for those who can neither live in the world, nor out of it. But beneath the gentle daily routines of this community run currents of supressed desire, religious yearning and a legend of disastrous love. Charming, indolent Dora arrives in their midst, and half-unwittingly conjures these submerged things to the surface.
'A tragi-comic masterpiece... a magnificent novel.' Susan Hill, The Lady
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY SARAH PERRY
VINTAGE CLASSICS MURDOCH: Funny, subversive, fearless and fiercely intelligent, Iris Murdoch was one of the great writers of the twentieth century. To celebrate her centenary Vintage Classics presents special editions of her greatest and most timeless novels.
