Rezension zu „Doris Lessing: Border Crossings “
"Doris Lessing's Border Crossings persuasively argues that Lessing's crossing of borders cultural, political, biographic, generic and thematic has been a persistent gesture. A valuable contribution to Doris Lessing Studies, this collection is innovative in grounding critiques of her work in British academic circles and current debates on the ideology of fictive forms, questions of authorship, commercial literary culture, aging and gender."- Professor Virginia Tiger, Department of English Chair, Rutgers University, USA
