Description

From the acclaimed South African writer, this autobiographical account explores Coetzee's youth as a boy who longs only to escape his homeland. When he finally does get away, however, and is living in London as a lonely computer programmer--rather than the poet he hoped to be--he confronts his disillusion by giving up writing. Coetzee's account of his life in the 1960s expands to include not only his own experiences but the events of the world around him, including the Vietnam War and the 1960 Sharpeville Massacre. A New York Times Notable Book for 2002.
