Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In a beleaguered city where rats and roving gangs terrorize the streets, where government has broken down and meaningless violence holds sway, a woman — middle-aged and middle-class — is brought a twelve-year-old girl and told that it is her responsibility to raise the child. This book, which the author has called "an attempt at autobiography," is that woman's journal — a glimpse of a future only slightly more horrendous than our present, and of the forces that alone can save us from total destruction. About the AuthorDoris Lessing was born of British parents in Persia, in 1919, and moved with her family to Southern Rhodesia when she was five years old. She went to England in 1949 and has lived there ever since. She is the author of more than thirty books—novels, stories, reportage, poems, and plays. In 2007, she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details
