Summary/Abstract: The Story of the Mind as the Avatar of Time and the Past in Doris Lessing’s The Memoirs of a Survivor. The essay analyses the stream of consciousness technique in Doris Lessing’s novel insisting on the concept of time and the importance of creative rewriting and rereading (reinterpreting the past) as key factors conducive to a new literary work.
