It’s #IrishBookWeek and we’re spotlighting two It’s #IrishBookWeek and we’re spotlighting two wonderful Anglo-Irish women that propelled the literary canon in the 20th century; Iris Murdoch and Elizabeth Bowen. In ‘The Iris Trilogy: Memoirs of Iris Murdoch’, the prolific authors husband John Bayley reflects on her life and work whilst capturing their unbreakable bond. Entailed are touching but poignant stories peppered with the knowledge that Iris and her grand intellect would eventually succumb to Alzheimer’s disease. —— A sudden death in the family delivers Julia Parry a box of love letters. Dusty with age, they reveal an illicit affair between the celebrated Irish novelist, Elizabeth Bowen, and the academic Humphry House – Julia’s grandfather. ‘The Shadowy Third’ is a beautifully written investigation of family, love, and the lasting power of literature. Both books are available to purchase via the Duckworth website and in all good independents! #irishauthors #irismurdoch #literarybiography #litbio #bookstagram #books #booksbooksbooks #publishedtoday #outnow #booklover #memoir #biography #literarywomen #independentpress #duckworth #elizabethbowen #bookstagram #smallpress #onthisday #bookstagram
