Doris Lessing won this year's Nobel Prize for Literature. I haven't read her books but I have copies of them. I have a copy of her short story collection. She is primarily known for her novel The Golden Notebook (pictured below).

The Nobel Organization said of Lessing's works: "that epicist of the female experience, who with scepticism, fire and visionary power has subjected a divided civilisation to scrutiny." I don't know what that means.
