The Grass Is Singing written by a British writer Doris Lessing, there are two main characters—Mary Turner and Dick Turner. They are white immigrants in South Africa and they fail to fit in both the white community and the local community. The difficulty in entering the community causes their identity crisis and leads to their tragedy. The reason why they are rejected by the community can be divided into two parts: the inner factor and outer factor.
