Doris Lessing, a novelist whose books have swept across continents and reflected her concern about the social and political issues of her time, won the 2007 Nobel Prize in Literature. The award came with about $1. 6 million.
Ms Lessing never finished high school and largely educated herself through reading. She has written dozens of books of fiction, as well as plays, non-fiction and two volumes of autobiography. She is the 11th woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature.
Ms Lessing was born Doris May Tayler in 1919 in what is now Iran. Her father was a bank clerk, and her mother was trained as a nurse. Attracted by the promise of farming riches, the family moved to Zimbabwe, where Ms Lessing had what she had called a painful childhood.
She left home when she was 15, and in 1937 she moved to Salisbury in Southern Rhodesia, where she took jobs as a telephone operator and a nursemaid. She married at 19 and had two children. A few years later, feeling as if she were put in prison, she deserted her family. Afterwards she married Gottfried Lessing, and they had a son.
When she divorced Mr Lessing, she and her son, Peter, moved to London, where she began her writing career. Her first novel, The Grass Is Singing, was published in Britain in 1949. Ms Lessing's strongest influence may be that she inspired a generation of feminists（女权主义者）with her breakthrough novel, The Golden Notebook. The book was published in 1962, which wrote about the story of Anna Wulf, a woman who wanted to live freely and was, in some ways, Ms Lessing's secondary personality. She wrote about the inner lives of women and rejected the opinion that they should abandon their lives to marriage and children.
