While this title is relatively common on the secondary market a significant proportion of surviving copies exhibit heavy foxing cracked hinges or sun-bleached dust jackets. It is highly unusual to encounter a copy that has been so carefully preserved retaining both its structural integrity and vibrant aesthetic appeal. A compelling and prescient work by Nobel Laureate Doris Lessing The Memoirs of a Survivor chronicles the slow inexplicable collapse of society as observed by an unnamed female narrator from the window of her ground-floor flat. As the outside world devolves into nomadic gangs and tribal factions roaming the streets of a nameless British city the narrator discovers an ability to pass through the physical walls of her living room into a shifting surreal interior dimension. Blending dystopian science fiction with profound psychological inquiry Lessing's novel is a masterful exploration of civilisation childhood trauma and the enduring human spirit in the face of apocalypse.
