While Lessing was born in 1919, last time I looked she was still alive. ;) Tough old bird.
Our article talks about her dalliances with communism, feminism, and sufism, and tells us that she was out shopping for groceries when the announcement of the Nobel Prize win came, but it tells us next to nothing about what she won the prize for.
