Doris Lessing: Poetics of Being and Time

Doris Lessing is a writer for all times; she is a historiographer and a transnational translational mediator between the East and the West. This volume provides a collection of articles analysing Doris Lessings literature. The first part, entitled Lessings World of Words, offers a broad vision of the writers novels; it introduces her many genres and sheds light on her literary affiliations. This is followed by Lessings Other Spaces, which dives into the novelists imaginary and spiritual universes. The final part, Intersections: Lessing and Other Writers establishes an analogy between Lessings texts and Ahlem Mustaghanemis Memory in the Flesh, Atiq Rahimis Earth and Ashes and Salman Rushdies Shame.
