Societal and Psychological Fragmentation

LESSING, Doris The Golden Notebook. London: Michael Joseph. 1962.

8vo. Publisher’s black cloth, lettered in gilt to spine, iconic yellow dust wrapper designed by William Belcher with author’s photograph to rear panel, priced at 30s to front flap; pp. 567, [1]; a little wear to jacket especially to hinges of flaps, a few chips and small closed tears, slight toning to spine, a couple of short pen marks to spine and one to front panel, slight pushing to crown of spine; endpapers lightly offset, some toning to edges of textblock; else a near-fine copy in a very good dust-jacket.

First edition, first impression of the Nobel Prize winner’s masterpiece.

The Golden Notebook centres on Anna Wulf, a writer who is attempting to unify the four fragmented notebooks in which she has compartmentalised her life into a single ‘golden’ volume. Lessing’s inspiration for the novel arose out of a desire to write a book about the act of writing itself. Initially, she resisted this ambition, feeling as though the trope had been overworked, but over time she realised her individual approach could render it entirely new.

With an explicit focus on the position of women in society, Lessing explores wider societal breakdown through the mental break Anna is experiencing. Written at the dawn of second-wave feminism, the work resonates with the era’s emergent discourses on sexual liberation and the women’s movement.

Just what I wanted.
Color: Black, Navy Blue, Wine Red, Size: 5X-Large
These may have just become my standard shirt to wear. Feels good whether tucked or out. Drapes well and fits well. So far, I can see it adjust to the different undershirt I may wear. Will probably order another set in other colors and a back up set of the basics because they will get worn a lot.

Its alright
Color: Black, Size: 5X-Large
True to size per the size chart. The fabric is soft but it it feels cheap to me. It attracts lint but you can brush it off easily so its not the cheapest material I've dealt with. Also, it is opaque (not see through). There is no front/ back indicator either which is indicative of a cheap shirt in my opinion. Would be friendly for tag sensitive people (to stay positive).

Fuzzballs get wearing once
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Very smart to wear, but the quality is terrible so after one wash the collar start fraying and fuzzballs start forming. Very disappointing.
