Antonia McGrath

Clear and intellegent listening

Revisado: 06-11-12

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Nothing. It is well researched and well written, without the bias that often occurs with someone so in thrall with the subject that they have no perspective.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Doris Lessing?

I was so impressed by this womans life that I really couldn't single out one moment. A bundle of contradictions like many great artists, but principled.

Would you be willing to try another one of Anna Fields’s performances?

Yes, her voice is clear and easy to listen to and she reads with intelligence.

Was Doris Lessing worth the listening time?

Absolutely.

Any additional comments?

I am sixty-five years old and somehow got to this age without reading Doris Lessing, because I thought she was a science fiction writer. I saw a friend toting around the Golden Notebook and it looked like a brick, a science fiction brick. Then for a reason I no longer remember I listened to this biography and that sent me looking for her writing. It was an amazing discovery and this biography is what I have to thank for it. I am new to audible books and I find that you really have to like the sound of the readers voice or it can get on your nerves, which sort of defeats the purpose.
