In many types of Lessing's works, her series of fantasy novels suffered criticism from both the skills of form and ideological consciousness. But Lessing wrote off some acclaimed and great works which focus on female's experiences and political perspective, such as "The Golden Notebook"and "The Grass is Singing". But the writer of this paper considered that it can not express the complete Lessing. Because the complete Lessing has the greater writing intention and wider recongnization perspective. The complete Lessing was not just thinking about the gender confrontation, but deeply concerning and philosophical thinking about the reality division, the plight of human existence, the way of civilization, and even the future of universe. Despite of these essences, the research of Lessing's works would like watching flowers in the fog or see the moon in the water. And the concern and consciousness of these just reflected in those fantasy novels which suffered criticization. In fact, the one which suffered much accusations and criticisms of fantasy novels, the one which expressed the opinion of anti-science through deconstructing scientific and technological power,the one which expressed the idea of anti-utopia by describing a world of nasty utopia,the one which judged the reality through Concerning the future,the one which focus on human plight, the split of civilization and the future of universe, the one which holded deep spirits of humanism, is the real, complete and great Lessing.
