You Have to Read This

It's Doris Lessing's acceptance speech for the Nobel Prize. I cried all the way through reading it. I haven't actually read any of her books, but now I'll have to.

Thanks to TadMack for letting me know about this.

Starving people begging for books turns the conventional wisdom on its ear, doesn't it?--"Feed the body before saving the soul," etc.
