The striking portrait of a woman seeking her identity in a changing world.

In 1950s London, writer Anna Wulf struggles with a lack of inspiration. Divorced, with one child, worried she might go mad, she records her experiences in four notebooks: a black one for her writing life, a red one for her political views, a yellow one for her emotions, and a blue one for daily events.

However, a fifth notebook, the gold one, is where the scattered threads of her life connect and everything makes sense...

The Golden Notebook is widely regarded as Doris Lessing's masterpiece, one of the most important novels of the 20th century.
