"Africa belongs to the Africans; the sooner they take it back the better. But a country also belongs to those who feel at home in it. Perhaps it may be that love of Africa the country will be strong enough to link people who hate each other now. Perhaps..."Going Home is Doris Lessing's account of her first journey back to Africa, the land in which she grew up and in which so much of her emotion and her concern are still invested. Returning to Southern Rhodesia in 1956, she found that her love of Africa had remained as strong as her hatred of the idea of "white supremacy" espoused by its ruling class. Going Home evokes brilliantly the experience of the people, black and white, who have shaped and will shape a beloved country.

Da più di un secolo e mezzo, Jane Eyre affascina lettori e lettrici, e gli esperti si interrogano sul motivo del suo perdurante successo. Questo romanzo, che va oltre i colpi di scena romantici e gli elementi drammatici del gotico, presenta una protagonista ribelle che sfida le convenzioni della sua epoca. La scrittrice, con la sua audace eroina, ci invita a non confondere la convenzione con la morale. Il segreto della grande letteratura non è facilmente definibile, ma è chiaro che la voce della narratrice è straordinariamente autentica, le emozioni sono genuine e gli eventi sono esplosivi. La lotta della tenace e coraggiosa Jane contro la sua oppressiva tutrice, le dure condizioni della scuola e il rigido ordine sociale risuona profondamente, rivelando l'esperienza personale dell'autrice e il vissuto di una ragazza maltrattata dopo la perdita dei genitori. In questo epico racconto, l'amore trionfa su avversità e segreti terribili.
