Course Description

From Tyranny to Anarchy: J.M. Coetzee’s Novels of South Africa
Jo Ellen Winters, MA
The sometimes violent struggle for survival within and outside South Africa’s repressive barriers to individual freedom - barriers erected by both apartheid and the chaotic system that followed its overthrow – is illustrated in Coetzee’s two novels, Life and Times of Michael K and Disgrace. Although they are radically dissimilar in race, class, language, and politics, the protagonists in both books eventually, painfully, and differently discover identity and a way to a meaningful life on this tortured land.
