		<description><![CDATA[I deeply respect Doris Lessing&#8217;s ability to breath life into characters, and in &#8220;The Memoirs of a Survivor (1974)&#8221;, she breathes life into rooms and walls and more.  Doris Lessing is one of the most intelligent writers, certainly one of my favorite.  I wish I could have a glimpse of how she creates her works.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Having read a few of the books by the Nobel Price winner in literature, Doris Lessing, I am curious about her another genre that is not popularly accepted by the critics &#8211; science fiction.  So I picked up &#8220;Mara and Dann&#8221; (year 1999, 407 pages) from our National Library.  I have not read all of her [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have written and rewritten this entry so many times that it is no longer funny.  So I shall get straight into the point.  The beauty &#8211; which ironically the word beauty is the least appropriate word to describe the story - of &#8220;Ben in the World&#8221; is that Doris Lessing has created a main character so [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Doris Lessing needs no introduction in my site (please refer to the previous entry).  I had one other book in mind when I visited the library last week but it was not available.  So I have decided to pick another book authored by Doris Lessing.  Spoilt by options, I chose a rather short novel (160 pages) &#8211; &#8220;The Fifth [...]]]></description>
