Hi Lale,
--Previous Message--
: Doris Lessing won the Nobel Prize.
:
: I read two books of hers: "In Pursuit of the
: English" and a collection of stories, I believe
: it was titled "Room Number Nine".
:
: I loved "In Pursuit of the English", she
: chronicles her adventures after deciding to leave
: South Africa and settle in England.
:
: Room Number Nine had quite a few surreal stories. It
: was interesting but not an extra-ordinary literary
: experience.
:
: I'd like to read another book by her. I will include
: it in my list for 2008. Does anyone have any
: suggestions?
