J. M. Coetzee

Dominic Head (University of Central England, Birmingham)

J. M. Coetzee’s work addresses some of the key critical issues of our time: the relationship between postmodernism and postcolonialism, the role of history in the novel, and, repeatedly, how the author can combine a political consciousness with a commitment to the novel as a work of fiction. In this study, which may be used both as an introduction and by those already familiar with Coetzee’s work, Dominic Head shows how Coetzee’s engagement with the problems facing the postcolonial writer is always enriched by his awareness of a wider literary tradition.
