Set in South Africa under white rule, Doris Lessing's first novel is both a riveting chronicle of human disintegration and a beautifully understated social critique. Mary Turner is a self-confident, independent young woman who becomes the depressed, frustrated wife of an ineffectual, unsuccessful farmer. Little by little the ennui of years on the farm work their slow poison, and Mary's despair progresses until the fateful arrival of an enigmatic and virile black servant, Moses. Locked in anguish, Mary and Moses--master and slave--are trapped in a web of mounting attraction and repulsion. Their psychic tension explodes in an electrifying scene that ends this disturbing tale of racial strife in colonial South Africa.</P>
The Grass Is Singing blends Lessing's imaginative vision with her own vividly remembered early childhood to recreate the quiet horror of a woman's struggle against a ruthless fate.</P>

评分這本的文筆一般。納博科夫記得是說過，一流作傢let the course of action reveals itself，而不是顯山露水地寫悲愁（paraphrase, 非原句）。domestic wife + color clashes的題材屢見不鮮吧，讀的時候常常想起Denis的chocolat。
评分This is her virgin novel as well as the first novel I read wriiten by her, intrigued by her arrangement of plot and her diction.
评分怎麼辦...第一次讀小說讀到希望主人公趕快去死一死...然而人傢在第一章就死瞭… this is really a story of non-being // 呼，讀完感覺，這位部書屬於錶達欲十分旺盛，主題甚多的處女作。lessing文字的張力是很大的，對於女主在種族與性彆的夾縫的處境描寫得入木三分。值得關注的不僅有女性主題和種族主題，還有與此平行的、人與自然關係的問題。其實這三個主題在Lessing的筆下，有甚多交叉融閤，甚至都包含某種Lessing十分關心的權力結構的問題。
评分a life long weakness
