Abstract: Iris Murdochs The Message to the Planet accounts the mysterious life experience of Jewish protagonist Marcus Vallar, who has gone through healing, being worshipped as a fetish group and selfdestruction. Murdoch depicts the myth with a combination of modernized deconstruction and religious sin in this fiction, reflecting the void and detachment in the modern spiritual world, which is rooted in mans perplexion of postGod era and doubting the absolute dominance of ration.

摘要： 《寄语行星》讲述了犹太裔主人公马库斯·瓦兰从治愈他人、被群体性膜拜到自我毁灭的神秘人生经历。默多克通过对一系列神秘事物特别的书写方式，即现代性的解构与宗教原罪的结合，展示了现代人精神世界的空虚和疏离。这种精神世界的缺失源自现代人对绝对理性秩序的疑问和失去信仰后的迷茫。
