...aspect of herself. Brilliant, autobiographical and feverishly experimental, it's a bravura portrait of a shattered self, richly adorned with ruthless commentary on psychoanalysis, Communism, England and Africa, and modern fiction. "This novel," Lessing has said of The Golden Notebook, "is an attempt to break a form; to break certain forms of consciousness and go beyond them. While writing it, I found I did not believe some of the things I thought I believed: or rather, that I hold in my mind at the same time beliefs and ideas that are apparently contradictory. Why not?
