Martha Quest by Doris May Lessing
A vivid coming-of-age portrait of a young woman raised on a Southern African farm who, restless and ambitious, rebels against family expectation and the confines of colonial society; moving into town she explores relationships and sexuality, sharpens an intellectual and political consciousness, and struggles to define herself apart from marriage, respectability and provincial life as she searches for independence and meaning.
