  "The Golden Notebook" (novel by Doris Lessing) Wow, finally some fiction that isn't science fiction and something written by a woman. Excellent choice! I highly recommend her other works. What blew me away the most about Golden Notebook: It was published in 1962 -- 60 years ago! The ideas about feminism that the two lead women characters discuss are way ahead of their time. Also by Ms. Lessing, I recommend "The Grass Is Singing". She really knows how transport you inside the minds of her characters. The lead character's struggle to adapt to difficult farm life in a colony is real.
