Abstract
The letters from Murdoch to Meyers from 1978 to 1995 cover various topics, including classic writers like Joseph Conrad, D. H. Lawrence and John Cowper Powys, and contemporaries like John Updike and Vikram Seth; her unprovoked quarrel with Rebecca West; production of her play The Black Prince; political views, especially about Ireland; delight that women could be ordained as priests; paintings she’s seen; conferences attended; extensive travels; and difficulty writing at the onset of Alzheimer’s disease.
