Résumé

Unlock the more straightforward side of The Grass is Singing with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!

This engaging summary presents an analysis of The Grass is Singing by Doris Lessing, which tells the story of a white couple in Southern Rhodesia during apartheid. Dick Turner is a farmer who continually struggles but fails to make a profit on his farm; Mary gave up her independence and married him out of shame at still being single in her 30s. Their marriage is failing and they both feel frustrated with their lives and frequently lash out at the black workers on the farm where they live. However, Mary, starved of social interaction and intellectual stimulation, gradually becomes close to the black cook Moses, with disastrous consequences for the Turners and for their white compatriots. The Grass is Singing is an excellent example of the realism for which Lessing’s writing is celebrated, and remains one of her best-known and most acclaimed works.
