«Das Goldene Notizbuch» is the novel by Doris Lessing, published by Goverts Im S Fischer Verlag in hardback (633 pages, in German).
Anna Wulf, a writer with creative block, records her life in four notebooks: black (her past in Africa), red (communist activism), yellow (a novel) and blue (intimate diary). The golden notebook attempts to unite these fragmented experiences. Considered a key feminist work, it addresses female identity, sexuality and politics.
Originally written in English under the title «The Golden Notebook» and published in 1962, the work won the Prix Médicis étranger in 1976.
For readers of feminist classics and twentieth-century British fiction, with psychological and political depth.
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).
