A Goodreads user asked this question about The Sea, the Sea:
One of my reading goals for this year is to read an Iris Murdoch. <i>The Sea, The Sea</i> seems to be her most lauded, but for Murdoch fans: is this your favorite, or the best place to start for a newby?
Doug Hi. I too am new to Murdoch so perhaps not quite the intended audience for your question. I read The Bell earlier this year and thoroughly enjoyed it.…moreHi. I too am new to Murdoch so perhaps not quite the intended audience for your question. I read The Bell earlier this year and thoroughly enjoyed it. I have followed up with The Sea The Sea and, though I liked and appreciated it, I found it less appealing overall, for all that the characters are equally as inventively drawn if not more so. (less)
