I think my father's rage at the trenches took me over, when I was very young, and has never left me. Do children feel their parents' emotions? Yes, we do, and it is a legacy I could have done without. What is the use of it? It is as if that old war is in my own memory, my own consciousness. In this extraordinary book, the 2007 Nobel Laureate Doris Lessing explores the lives of her parents, each irrevocably damaged by the Great War. Her father wanted the simple life of an English farmer, but shrapnel almost killed him in the trenches, and thereafter he had to wear a wooden leg. Her mother, Emily, spent the war nursing the wounded in the Royal Free Hospital after her great love, a doctor, drowned in the Channel. In the fictional first half of Alfred and Emily, Doris Lessing imagines the happier lives her parents might have made for themselves had there been no war; a story that begins with their meeting at a village cricket match outside Colchester. This is followed by a piercing examination of their relationship as it actually was in the shadow of the Great War, of the family's move to Africa, and of the impact of her parents' marriage on a young woman growing up in a strange land. "Here I still am," says Doris Lessing, "trying to get out from under that monstrous legacy, trying to get free." Triumphantly, with the publication of Alfred and Emily, she has done just that.

"Els meus pares, l'Alfred i l'Emily, eren extraordinaris, cada un a la seva manera. El que tenien en comú era una gran energia. La Primera Guerra Mundial els va perjudicar a tots dos. La metralla va destrossar la cama al pare, i a partir de llavors en va haver de portar una de fusta. El gran amor de la mare, un metge, es va ofegar al Canal. Ella no es va recuperar mai d'aquesta pèrdua. He provat de donar-los la vida que haurien pogut tenir si no hi hagués hagut la Primera Guerra Mundial." Doris LessingAls noranta anys, després de tota una vida, Doris Lessing continua enfrontant-se a les ombres del seu passat familiar. Fent un esforç extraordinari i bellíssim per alliberar-se d'aquest llegat, l'autora s'endinsa en les vides dels seus pares tot imaginant la vida feliç que haurien pogut dur si la Primera Guerra Mundial no els hagués ferit irrevocablement, i confrontant la seva vida real amb els seus propis ambivalents sentiments.

"Je crois que la colère ramenée des tranchées par mon père s'est emparée de moi très tôt et ne m'a plus jamais quittée. " Parce que le poids de la Première Guerre mondiale a brisé son père, parce que l'émigration en Rhodésie a fait perdre à sa mère le goût de vivre, Doris Lessing a voulu imaginer l'existence de ses parents si l'histoire avait pris un autre cours : la guerre n'a pas eu lieu, l'Angleterre est florissante... et Alfred et Emily ne se sont jamais mariés. A travers ce pari romanesque audacieux, Doris Lessing, à la fois auteur et critique de son œuvre, nous offre les pages les plus personnelles de son autobiographie.

At a young age, Alfred Vanderbilt inherited a massive fortune of $40 million and control of the Vanderbilt railroading empire. With no interest in business matters, the youth squandered his wealth on horses and women on two continents. None of the Vanderbilts gave as much fuel for gossip to the curious public as Alfred. By the time the extravagant playboy boarded the Lusitania on May 7, 1915, he was the subject of numerous scandals, including the suicide of four different women. But as the ship went down, he spent the last minutes of his life rescuing women and children and forgoing his own life. How is it that this wraith, this gluttonous, opulent youth, could undergo an entire change of character in his last few moments? Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt follows Alfred’s journey from philanderer to hero in this incredible, never-before-told story of the hero of the Lusitania.
