Doris Lessing,the prolific and path-finding novelist whose writing has for almost six decades captured the inner turmoil and social transformations of a world in flux,has won this year's Nobel Prize in Literature.Announcing its decision in Stockholm yesterday,the Swedish Academy described the 87-year-old,Iranian-born British author as an epic chronicler of female experience "who with scepticism,fire and visionary power has subjected a divided civilisation to scrutiny".
Lessing follows Harold Pinter (2005) and V S Naipaul (2001) as the third British Nobel laureate in literature since the millennium.Her surprise award (beating quoted odds of 50-1) confirms the Academy's shift over the past 15 years towards globally celebrated writers,often from the English-speaking world.
The novelist and poet Helen Dunmore welcomed a "fantastic" choice."It's a recognition of the range and depth of her work – which is hugely enjoyable,but she has also rearranged everyone's mental furniture," she said.To the novelist Michèle Roberts,Lessing's Nobel should inspire writers "to believe that you can get to grips with the very,very complicated world we live in and make pictures of it.And it's great to see a woman writer doing that."
A few days short of her 88th birthday,the oldest winner of the prize herself noted that the Nobel completes her set of major European awards."I'm delighted to win them all," Lessing said at her home in West Hampstead,London."It's a royal flush."
It took Lessing years of struggle and experiment to collect her winning hand.Her parents,an invalid bank clerk and a nurse,moved from (then) Persia to Southern Rhodesia in 1925 to farm maize.The African upbringing explored in her 1950 debut The Grass in Singing and through her semi-autobiographical Children of Violence series (1952-1969) introduced her to abiding themes of private anguish and social injustice – and the links between the two.
Shaped both by avid childhood reading,from Dickens and Dostoyevsky to DH Lawrence,and her father's bitter tales of the First World War,she dropped out of school and joined left-wing circles in colonial Salisbury.Married at 19,she had two children but left them and her first husband,Frank Wisdom; she later married a Communist colleague,Gottfried Lessing,with whom she had another child.Mother and son moved to London in 1949.
Lessing moved through and out of Marxist militancy,an engagement charted through her heroine Martha Quest in novels such as A Ripple from the Storm (1958).Dunmore recommends them as "a long and complex journey with the character,but also with the author".Meanwhile,fictional depictions of the colonial racism in Lessing's own background led to her banning from Rhodesia and South Africa as a "prohibited alien".
