520			_a"The classic coming-of-age novel for women. Intelligent, sensitive, and fiercely passionate, Martha Quest is a young woman living on a farm in Africa, feeling her way through the torments of adolescence and early womanhood. She is a romantic idealist in revolt against the puritan snobbery of her parents, trying to live to the full with every nerve, emotion, and instinct laid bare to experience. For her, this is time of solitary reading, daydreams, dancing-and the first disturbing encounters with sex. The first of Doring Lessing's timeless children of violence novels, Martha Quest is an enduring masterpiece." - Back cover
