AND NO ONE SWORE
by Iris Murdoch
Tarquin Fatherinshaw believes that the priesthood he abandoned as a young man, following a crisis of faith, might find a strikingly new and secularised form. Kitty, his wife, obsessed by guilt following the death of their first child, seeks comfort from artist Orb Kronos.
She is torn between two possible futures: to follow her husband and his new millennial vision or the atavistic aestheticism of Kronos.
It is in the Kent retreat of Sunny Glades where the apocalyptic, psychic drama is played out.
