Description
Under the Net by Iris Murdoch A comic novel about work and love, wealth and fame, Iris Murdoch's debut introduces two unlikely friends: Jake Donaghue, a struggling writer, and Hugo Bell, a silent philosopher. Their encounters lead to a series of adventures involving a film-star dog, a political riot on an ancient Roman film set, and a mysterious servant-companion named Finn. As Jake becomes fascinated with Hugo's enigmatic nature, he longs to uncover the secrets behind his friend's 'philosophy'. Perhaps the truth lies not in the words, but in the person himself? Through their complex relationships and misadventures, Murdoch explores themes of identity, creativity, and the search for meaning. With its unique blend of wit, satire, and psychological insight, Under the Net is a thought-provoking novel that invites readers to ponder the nature of reality and the human condition.
