Doris Lessing  

Definition

  • Doris Lessing is one of the most prominent English novelists of the 20th century; her recent writings and Nobel Prize Award in 2007 take her well into the 21st century with a long and rich fictional production. Motherhood is an almost-constant element of her character or characters' relationships; in particular, the agonistic mother-daughter relationship is a recurrent pattern in her novels and short stories. [Source: Encyclopedia of Motherhood; Lessing, Doris]
