‘Good: The sense of an archive’ is a perfect bound 104 page book and the culmination of a project with the Iris Murdoch Archive as a way to bring alive unseen material that the archive has in its collection.
The project began with Matthew’s discovery of some incomplete notes written by Iris Murdoch in the back pages of The Outsider by Colin Wilson. The notes were Iris Murdoch’s first thoughts for a novel that became The Bell. This became the starting point for connecting and combining two writers and two narrative worlds, using the form of an illustrated book to play in the spaces between reading and seeing, and words and images.
