About the author

Lorna Sage

Summary

This study, originally published in 1983, surveys Doris Lessing's epic output from her early, African writings to her later experiments with space fiction. It traces her struggles to decentre imaginative life and to erase and to redraw the boundaries of our mental maps in favour of values on the margins of the official culture.
