«El cuaderno dorado» is the novel by Doris Lessing published by Círculo de Lectores in hardcover (746 pages, in Spanish).
The writer Anna Wulf, author of a successful novel, tries to order her life and her creation in four notebooks: the black one covers her time in Africa; the red one, her communist militancy and political disenchantment; the yellow one, the material of a novel; and the blue one, her personal diary. In the golden notebook she seeks to integrate these fragmented experiences and overcome the personal and creative crisis that threatens her identity.
Work originally published in 1962 and winner of the Prix Médicis étranger in 1976. Edition with translation by Helena Valentí and prologue by Marta Pessarrodona.
For readers of literary fiction interested in feminism, politics and the psychological evolution of characters.
Doris May Lessing was a British novelist – sometimes identified as Rhodesian early in her career – and winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2007. Lessing was born to British parents in Qajar Iran, where she lived until she was 6 in 1925. Her family then moved to Southern Rhodesia, where she remained until moving to London, England, in 1949. Her novels include The Grass Is Singing (1950), the sequence of five novels collectively called Children of Violence (1952–1969), The Golden Notebook (1962), The Good Terrorist (1985), and five novels collectively known as Canopus in Argos: Archives (1979–1983).
