Helen Reed, a novelist in her early forties, still grieving for her
husband who died suddenly a year before, is a visiting teacher of
creative writing at a university where Ralph Messenger, a cognitive
scientist with a special interest in Artificial Intelligence and an
incorrigible womaniser, is director of a prestigious research
institute. He is an atheist and a materialist, she is a Catholic
who has lost her faith but still yearns for the consolations of
religion. Ralph is attracted to Helen and she, in spite of her
principles, to him. They argue about the nature of human
consciousness, and the different ways it is examined in science and
literature, as she resists with weakening resolution Ralph’s
efforts to seduce her.David Lodge has distilled the story of his
acclaimed novel Thinks... to create a witty and absorbing drama
about a moral, emotional and intellectual struggle between two
exceptional people.
