Doris Lessing was born in 1919 in Persia, moving as a child with her family to southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, where she stayed in school only to the age of 14.

A year after moving to London, she published her first novel in 1950. The Grass is Singing examines unbridgeable racial conflict(冲突) in colonial Africa through the eyes of a white farmer’s wife and her black servant.

Her literary breakthrough came in 1962 with publication of The Golden Notebook, seen by many, though not necessarily Lessing, as a pioneering work of modern feminism(女权运动). A separated study of the mind of the main character, Amma Wulf, the novel explores her thoughts about Africa, politics and relationships with men and sex.

Lessing’s themes changed to psychology in her works from the 1960s, and by the 1970s the was extremely interested in the Islamic mystic tradition of Sufism(苏菲教派). Her turn toward science fiction with the Canopus series in the early 1980s was not warmly received by traditionalist critics, but she has continued to win new readers and numerous literary awards, including the David Cohen British Literary Prize and the Companion of Honour from the Royal Society of Literature, both in 2001.

Following the announcement, the Horace Engdahl told VOA why he was personally so pleased with Lessing’s selection.

“She is one of the truly great writers-of novels, short stories, fiction and non-fiction,” Engdahl said. “She is one of the few writers who have had the courage to uphold the principle of equality between the male and female experience, and she has given the impulse(冲动) to numbers of other women writers. And she is really the mother of a school that is one of the most important in our contemporary literature.”

At 87, Doris Lessing is the oldest Nobel Literature winner sine the first prizes were awarded in 1901.

Even though it was only October, my students were already whispering about Christmas plans. With each passing day everyone became more  31  waiting for the final school bell. Upon its   32  everyone would run for their coats and go home, everyone except David

David was a small boy in ragged clothes. I had often  33 what kind of home life David had, and what kind of mother could send her son to school dressed so 34 for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots, or gloves. But something made David   35  . I can still remember he was always  36 a smile and willing to help. He always  37 after school to straighten chairs and mop the floor. We never talked much. He  38  just smile and ask what else he could do ,then thank me for letting him stay and slowly  39 home.

Weeks passed and the  40  over the coming Christmas grew into restlessness until the last day of  41 before the holiday break. I smiled in  42  as the last of them hurried out the door. Turning around I saw David 43 standing by my desk.  

“I have something for you” he said and   44 from behind his back a small box.  45   it to me, he said anxiously, “Open it. ”I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped it. I lifted the lid and to my 46  saw nothing. I looked at David’s smiling face and back into the box and said. “The box is nice, David, but it’ s  47 .

“ Oh no it isn’t ,” said David “ It’s full of love, my mum told me before she died that love was something you couldn’t see or touch unless you know it’s there .”

Tears filled my eyes  48  Ilooked at the proud dirty face that I had rarely given  49  to. After that Christmas, David and I became good friends and I never forgot the meaning 50 the little empty box set on my desk.
