Lessing's the Golden Notebook is one of the most important feminist works in the last century. In the same era, it is difficult to find another work that has described the situation of women in such a detailed and profound way. The most important significance of the novel is that it is an epic of educated women's experiences about self-liberation.

In the Golden Notebook, Lessing has a rational look at almost all aspects of Western free women and highlights various difficulties the intellectual women have encountered in the process of seeking self-liberation. This novel depicts the plight of free women far beyond the works of feminism in other times. Lessing tries to analyze all the survival crises of free women from a broader perspective, and more importantly, she provides a unique outlet for free women, which is the reason why the Golden Notebook is so profound.
