Scientists have found evidence that Iris Murdoch's Alzheimer's manifested itself in her prose, before she was diagnosed with it. Never been a fan of her works, but it struck me that Hemingway spent his life trying to simplify prose, to approach "zero degree narration," and there seems to be little acknowledgment that she might have deliberately sought to write in a less flowery manner. I mean, they've compared two of her early works with her final work. Should they not have looked at the penultimate work as well?
