Ms Lessing considers sci-fi with a nod to her African roots
Doris Lessing spins history and philosphy in the air and captures, in this world, the echoes of her early Zimbabwean novels giving them a different sound, a different reflection. A great use of the genre to play with ideas of conquest, the nature of colonial and racial empires, politics and love: read with the first novel preferably under a clear sky
