In the next decade, she continued to write fiction based on her upbringing in Africa and participate in left-wing politics although she gave up communism in 1954, South Africa and her homeland of Southern Rhodesia both banned her from returning in 1956. (In The Golden Notebook, protagonist Anna Wulf fictionalizes this portion of Lessing’s life in her black notebook.) In 1949, Doris Lessing divorced Gottfried Lessing and brought their young son to London soon thereafter, she published her first novel, The Grass is Singing. Dissatisfied, she soon left her new family to spend her free time in discussion with the Left Book Club, where she met her next husband, the German communist exile Gottfried Lessing. After pursuing unfruitful relationships out of her self-described “fever of erotic longing,” Lessing married at 19 and had two children. During this time, she published a few stories in colonial magazines, and wrote and destroyed two novel manuscripts. Lessing escaped her miserable home to become a nursemaid and telephone operator.
She went to a girls’ school in the capital of Salisbury (now Harare) until dropping out at age 13-she never returned to school, but she pursued her education independently, reading extensively during her teen years.
