The Sacred and Profane Love Machine

by Iris Murdoch

4 · 368 pages · First published 1974

This is a story of different loves; and of how a man may need two women in such a way that he can be happy with neither. Sacred and profane love are related opposites; the one enjoyed renders the other necessary, so that the ever unsatisfied heart swings constantly to and fro.
