Ethics, Evil, and Fiction brings together moral philosophy and literary analysis in a way that offers new insights for both. Examining the relations between morality, art, and beauty, McGinn argues, controversially, that morality is an area of objective truth and genuine knowledge; and shows the value of literary texts as sources of moral illumination. Discussing a wide range of works, from Billy Budd to Lolita, this highly original book will be compelling reading for all who are interested in ethics or in the links between philosophy and literature.
