English Abstract

This study presents Doris Lessing as a writer who prefers shedding light upon the cruelty of the real world instead of creating something imaginary which cannot be felt by people around the world.

One can perceive this fact through analysing her first work The Grass is Singing (1950).

This study analyzes this work from four viewpoints: psychoanalytical, feministic, racial and autobiographical.

Through these viewpoints, one can glean the fact that this novel is a multi-thematic one.

Moreover, this study can be used in order to make readers familiar with Doris Lessing as a writer who does not belong to a univocal culture or mentality.

She addresses issues which concern all people around the world; therefore, this study can be an example of a work which focuses on the achievements of any creative writer irrespective of his/her background
