Synopsis "Las Cárceles Elegidas (in Spanish)"

Este volumen contiene cinco conferencias que la escritora expuso en 1985 en las que la autora, galardonada con el premio nobel de literatura 2007, estructura una honda reflexión sobre las posibilidades de la racionalidad frente al totalitarismo. ¿por qué la humanidad parece incapaz de eludir la barbarie? ¿por qué si ahora sabemos tanto sobre la conducta humana no somos capaces de aprovechar lo que nos enseñan la historia y la sociología? Ante la crueldad, los dogmas, la mercadotecnia, las modas caprichosas de la opinión pública, lessing contrapone una tenue pero segura confianza: al menos ahora la humanidad es capaz de observarse a sí misma con objetividad, y en esta capacidad está cifrado su futuro.

Doris Lessing (Iran, 1919 - London, 2013), was an English writer born in Persia, spent her childhood on a farm in Zimbabwe after her family moved there in 1924. She left school at 14 and was self-educated while working as a clinic assistant, marked by a contentious relationship with her mother that led her to become independent at 17. After two marriages and three children, she settled in England in 1949, where she began her literary career with The Grass is Singing (1950), a novel that denounced racism in Africa

Her work, influenced by her life in Africa and her communist activism, merges social criticism -colonialism, racial inequality- with autobiographical explorations, as in the series Children of Violence (1952-1969). She ventured into science fiction with Canopus in Argos and addressed women's emancipation in The Golden Notebook (1962), an iconic work that made her a feminist symbol despite her rejection of the label. Awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature (2007) and the Prince of Asturias Award (2001), her legacy endures as one of the most critical and visionary voices of the 20th century.

Un libro que pese a ser escrito hace más de 60 años, se mantiene plenamente vigente y nos invita a cuestionar el pensamiento de masas con un criterio de realidad contado en primera persona por su autora. Sin duda se recomienda su lectura especialmente al público joven y exaltado que prefiere ignorar las enseñanzas de la historia.
