Lessing Doris
Summary
Doris Lessing: And again, love
Born as Doris May Taylor in Persia (today's Iran) on October 22, 1919. Doris Lessing soon moved with her family to the British colony of Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe). She attended a convent school, then a general girls' high school, from which she was kicked out at the age of thirteen, and that's where her formal education ended. To escape from her overly strict mother, Doris got a job as a housekeeper at the age of fifteen. At that time, she was already writing short stories, she even sold two to South African magazines. In 1937, she moved to Salisbury and in a short time got a job as a telephone operator, got married and gave birth to two children. After a few years, feeling imprisoned, she left the family. She joined the communist group Left Book Club and met Gottfried Lessing, whom she soon married and gave birth to a son. After the war, she lost her illusions about the communist movement. In 1949, she moved with her child to London, published her first novel The Grass Sings and began her career as a professional writer.
