There were some articles in The Times yesterday about the writer John Mortimer by Valerie Grove whose biography of the man comes out soon. There is a brief reference to his atheism in one article and in another these successive statements:
By now John was adept at self-deception, erasing unpleasant or inconvenient matters from his mind.
“When John doesn’t want to know something,” the forthright Penny [once his wife] told me, “he doesn’t know it.”
“When John doesn’t want to know something,” the forthright Penny [once his wife] told me, “he doesn’t know it.”
That would perhaps explain his atheism, do you think?
