'Anne Rowe has brought together a strong cast to write about Murdoch and theology, philosophy and fictionThis, then, is an ambitious project and a much needed one, as Murdoch is famous for using different registers for different purposes... Iris Murdoch: A Reassessment presents robust, new material, building on excellent work...' - Dr. Alison Scott-Baumann, The Iris Murdoch Review
