Martin believes he can possess both a beautiful wife and a delightful lover. But when his wife, Antonia, suddenly leaves him for her psychoanalyst, Martin is plunged into an intensive emotional re-education. He attempts to behave beautifully and sensibly. Then he meets a woman whose demonic splendour at first repels him and later arouses a consuming and monstrous passion. How will he survive it?

A Severed Head

Iris Murdoch has woven a tale that is unlike any other I have ever read. Her description of scenes keeps you totally engrossed and engaged in the story. Told from Martin’s perspective she has arranged an often funny story with twists galore. It is amazing who ends up with whom-much like musical chairs, it does not unwind til the final page.
