Doris Lessing: A Retrospective
A beautiful and informative site. Here you can find not only information about Lessing’s life and work, but also a wonderful collection of Lessing photographs and portraits, images of first-edition copies of her books, and recordings of her reading some of her work. This site is a labour of love created by Jan Hanford. As the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature (in 2007), Nobelprize.org offers a great deal of information about Lessing and her work, as well as online interviews and her Nobel lecture.Lessing Obituaries online
