"The Sandcastle"
and
"The Bell"
demonstrate her ability to make usual and even banal situations exciting. A lot of other novels, except
"The
Red and the Green",
brim with unaccountable horrors, senseless crimes and love affairs. The characters are
hopelessly engulfed in the world of evil, their alienation is complete, and the author's dependence on
traditional schemes of existentialism is obvious. The picture of the Irish uprising in 1916 in the
"The Red
and the Green"
is written with a certain sense of realism. Her other novels include an "
Accidental
Man"(1971), "The Black Prince"(1973)", "The Sea, The Sea"
(1978),
"The Good Apprentice"
(1986), and
"The Book and the Brotherhood"
(1988). Iris Murdoch tried to write in the spirit of realistic traditions in
English literature. But her books are characterized by Romantic foundation.
