Description: The Sea, the Sea by Iris Murdoch. Introduction by John Sutherland. 9 full plate illustrations by Tatsuro Kiuchi. Bound in cloth, blocked with a design by the artist. Charles Arrowby, leading light of England’s theatrical set, retires from glittering London to an isolated home by the sea. He plans to write a memoir about his great love affair with Clement Makin, his mentor, both professionally and personally, and amuse himself with Lizzie, an actress he has strung along for many years. None of his plans work out, and his memoir evolves into a riveting chronicle of the strange events and unexpected visitors-some real, some spectral-that disrupt his world and shake his oversized ego to its very core. Please look closely at the photos as they are part of the description. Will wrap and pack very carefully. Will post worldwide. Any questions please ask. In the unlikely event you do encounter a problem, please do message me first to resolve it, and I will do my best to help.All the books are stored in our smoke-free, climate-controlled shop in Surbiton, London.
