Abstract: The Grass Is Singing is one of Lessing’s most important African novels. By detailed description of the real conditions of the colonial and apartheid South African society, this novel reveals the constraining, distorting and devastating nature of its ethical orders, and launched fierce condemnations. This paper makes a focused study on the novel’s narrator intrusion devices, and illustrates in details the ethical rhetoric effects: how they are effective in guiding the readers’ moral judgment, enriching the novel’s themes and consolidating the condemnations.
