doris lessing wins the 2007 nobel

i've not actually read her - i must admit (shame on me, astro, shame) - so, any comments on this award? worthwhile? overdue? what should i read first if i were to start now? why?

who else might have won if not doris?

I've not read much Lessing, but I can heartily recommend Memoirs Of A Survivor.

Cue all the pieces in the press about how her science fiction wasn't ACTUALLY science fiction...
