The Grass is Singing records the decay and disintegration of both society and the individual owing to lack of balance on both levels. However, the political aspect is but one of the many issues of the novel. It has been widely welcomed as the most successful colonial novel since The Story of an African Farm of 1883. This first novel has been seen by many critics as mainly about the issue of racial discrimination. The Grass is Singing, 1 was published in 1950, soon after Lessing’s arrival in England from South Africa.
