Born on October 22, 1919, Doris Lessing redefined English fiction as a tool of liberation and self-examination. Her fearless prose, from The Golden Notebook to her political essays, gave English new emotional and moral dimensions — a language capable of truth, rebellion, and psychological depth that reshaped modern consciousness.
