New essays providing critical views of Coetzee's major works for the scholar and the general reader.J. M. Coetzee is perhaps the most critically acclaimed bestselling author of imaginative fiction writing in English today. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2003 and is the first writer to have been awarded two BookerPrizes. The present volume makes critical views of this important writer accessible to the general reader as well as the scholar, discussing Coetzee's main works in chronological order and introducing the dominant themes in the academic discussion of his oeuvre.The volume highlights Coetzee's exceptionally nuanced approach to writing as both an exacting craft and a challenging moralethical undertaking. It discusses Coetzee's complex relation to apartheid and postapartheid South Africa, the land of his birth, and evaluates his complicated responses to the literary canon. Coetzee emerges as both a modernist and a highly selfaware postmodernist a champion of the truths of aliterary enterprise conducted unrelentingly in the mode of selfconfession.Contributors: Chris Ackerley, Derek Attridge, Carrol Clarkson, Simone Drichel, Johan Geertsema, David James, Michelle Kelly, Sue Kossew, MikeMarais, James Meffan, Tim Mehigan, Chris Prentice, Engelhard Weigl, Kim L.
