Author
Muriel Spark
Muriel Spark strips false saints and institutions. Her conversion to Catholicism didn't make her moralistic or sentimental; it put her in critical closeness to the ideological discourses that are used to influence and control us, but also give sense and meaning to our lives. She remains one of the most influential British writers of the 20th century.
