Three-Book Edition: The Golden Notebook, The Grass is Singing, The Good Terrorist: Shrinkwrapped set edition
This collection brings together three of Nobel Prize-winner Doris Lessing’s most acclaimed novels.
Her first novel, The Grass is Singing, is the story of Mary, a young wife, lonely and trapped in the African bush, until she turns to Moses, the black cook, for kindness and understanding.
A landmark of twentieth-century literature, The Golden Notebook is a powerful account of Anna Wulf, a woman searching for her personal and political identity, recording her emotional and creative lives in notebooks of different colours.
And in The Good Terrorist, a group of naive revolutionaries sets out to change the world, only to find themselves involved in a protest movement of escalating violence.
