by Nadine Gordimer
By the popular Vice contributor, a collection of full-throated appreciations, elaborate theories, and unflinching recollections
Description
Internationally celebrated for her novels, Nadine Gordimer has devoted much of her life and fiction to the political struggles of the Third World, the New World, and her native South Africa. Living in Hope and History is an on-the-spot record of her years as a public figure–an observer of apartheid and its aftermath, a member of the ANC, and the champion of dissident writers everywhere.
In a letter to fellow Nobel laureate Kenzaburo Oe, Nadine Gordimer describes Living in Hope and History as a “modest book of some of the nonfiction pieces I’ve written, a reflection of how I’ve looked at this century I’ve lived in.” It is, in fact, an extraordinary collection of essays, articles, and addresses delivered over four decades, including her Nobel Prize Lecture of 1991.
