As the Nobel Prize winner for literary in 2007, Doris Lessing is regarded as the greatest female writ er after Virginia Woolf. In Lessing＇s literary works, she depicts a world filled with both reality and delusion by her unique female perspective and exquisite style. Since the publication of one of Lessing＇s masterpieces The Golden Notebook, she has been labeled with ＂feminist＂. She wants to get rid of such title all the time, but the analysis of her works mostly confines in the field of feminism, thus greatly restricting readers＂ understanding. Based on the scrutinizing of the text This paper selects Lessing＇S maiden work The Grass is Singing as analytical object, combines her deep affection for Africa, thereby reveals the criticism of eeo imperialism implied in her work, excavates her detestation toward the destruction caused by eolonists in Africa and expresses her revere and passion to the vigorous vitality in Africa.
