Abstract
By the 1990s Doris Lessing was asserting that narrative and story-telling activities are that which makes us human. Relating her fiction to contemporary narrative theory, and taking a synoptic view across her novels – from The Grass is Singing (1950) to Ben in the World (2000) , with attention to The Golden Notebook (1962) and to her science-fiction inflected fables of the 1970s and 80s – this essay examines how the narrative spaces she has envisaged have mutated and altered throughout her career.
