Reviews
Reading Doris Lessing's A Home for the Highland Cattle and The Antheap in Jean Pickering's splendid new edition of these two short novels is a joy. It is a pleasure to have the novels back in print, and Pickering's appendices wonderfully contextualize these works for the twenty-first century reader. I especially appreciate the inclusion of stories by black African women writers Mabel Dove Danquah and Efua Sutherland, well-chosen historical documents from the 1920s and the 1940s, and the 1952 African Affairs report on Southern Rhodesia. I consider this volume a must read.
Synopsis
Doris Lessing's two short novels A Home for the Highland Cattle, a wry portrait of African settler society, and The Antheap, set in the gold fields of the former Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), were originally published in Five (1953), a collection of Lessing's shorter fictional works. This Broadview edition includes both novels, as well as a critical introduction and a rich selection of primary source material, such as excerpts from interviews with Doris Lessing, short fiction by contemporary African women writers, reviews, and historical documents focussing on race and socio-economic conditions in the former Southern Rhodesia.
