Iris Murdoch's novels are deeply influenced by soundscapes, including music and various sounds, which enhance their atmospheric and moral dimensions. This exploration invites readers to engage with the sensuous quality of her prose and to recognize the significance of auditory elements in her storytelling. By focusing on these aspects, the book aims to establish a new sub-field within Murdoch studies that aligns with the growing area of Word and Music Studies, encouraging a fresh appreciation of her work.
