dbpprop:abstract
  • The Marriages Between Zones Three, Four and Five is a 1980 science fiction novel by Nobel Prize in Literature-winner Doris Lessing. It is the second book in her five-book Canopus in Argos series. The story is narrated by the Chroniclers of Zone Three and concerns two ordained marriages that link the patriarchal and militaristic Zone Four with the matriarchal and egalitarian Zone Three, and the tribal and barbaric Zone Five. It focuses on the "struggles between men and women and the dimensions of sex and love", which, according to Time Lessing has never written "with more sweetness, compassion and wisdom. " The story is told largely from the point of view of the utopian Zone Three, which places the novel in the category of feminist utopias or feminist science fiction. The Marriages Between Zones Three, Four and Five can be read as a stand-alone book, although it does take place in Zones introduced in Shikasta (1979), the first book of the Canopus series.
