Ambientada en Sudáfrica bajo el régimen blanco, la primera novela de Doris Lessing es un fascinante relato de desintegración humana y una sutil crítica social. Mary Turner, una joven segura e independiente, se convierte en la esposa deprimida y frustrada de un granjero ineficaz y fracasado. Poco a poco, el tedio de los años en la granja va dejando su lento veneno, y la desesperación de Mary avanza hasta la fatídica llegada de un enigmático y viril sirviente negro, Moses. Atrapados en la angustia, Mary y Moses, ama y esclavo, quedan atrapados en una red de creciente atracción y repulsión. Su tensión psíquica explota en una escena electrizante que pone fin a este inquietante relato de la lucha racial en la Sudáfrica colonial.
Doris May Lessing was a British novelist – sometimes identified as Rhodesian early in her career – and winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2007. Lessing was born to British parents in Qajar Iran, where she lived until she was 6 in 1925. Her family then moved to Southern Rhodesia, where she remained until moving to London, England, in 1949. Her novels include The Grass Is Singing (1950), the sequence of five novels collectively called Children of Violence (1952–1969), The Golden Notebook (1962), The Good Terrorist (1985), and five novels collectively known as Canopus in Argos: Archives (1979–1983).
