A review by akanksha
The Grass is Singing by Doris Lessing

4.0

Doris Lessing very skillfully recreates the enervation and dissociation experienced by the protagonist Mary Turner such that the reader too undergoes these feelings. The Rhodesian veld rendered dreary because of the experience of the characters, the perpetual tension and subtext of violence make this at once a compelling and yet discomfiting read.
