Summary/Abstract: Gender Influences in Doris Lessing’s The Golden Notebook. The essay focuses on the feminine gender power of shaping the main character’s particular vision upon the world and upon literary writing in a postmodernist context. The hair-splitting manner of writing specific to a feminine author such as Doris Lessing, the feminist discourse defining the main character’s identity, the feminine capacity to express the abstract essence of the world through symbols will be focused on in this essay.
