#142 - The Bell - Iris Murdoch (Choice: Jen)(Venue: Zoom)

September 9th, 2021

Present: Jen, Sabine, Gill F, Nic

I was on my own in supporting this one. I danced through the pages, loved her prose, revelled in the atmosphere she invoked of a different era (albeit one I am happy to have dodged). Yes, it is dated but  I was nonetheless enchanted by the tale. Others, less so. Jen disliked the “lazy” portrayal of the closed convent, Sabine the characters, Gill was in agreement.
