"These previously unpublished letters from Murdoch and her husband John Bayley to Meyers are literarily informative and personally touching; and Meyers's own viewpoint on her writing and character, based on his personal contact with her and her husband, is very valuable. His view of the memoirs by Bayley and A.N. Wilson, which seem to take opposing points of view about her, introduces much-needed balance into the discussion of her personality and character." - Stephen E. Tabachnick, Professor of English Literature, University of Memphis, USA
