Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Ronnie Govenders works are significant in the construction of a South African national identity. The purpose of this book is to engage critically with race, class and resistance through a collection of essays on Govenders oeuvre. His writings are reinvigorated by close reading within the context of postcolonial and critical theory. Govender recalls the resilience of the multiracial community of Cato Manor whose democratic coexistence and mutual respect comprise a model for the new nation. As a memory work, his texts recollect private and community identity in the wounded spaces of colonial and apartheid oppression. Events of the past should be interpreted in a creative and imaginative way and literature enlightens it best.Govenders unique performative prose reconstructs and resurrects the lives of the residents of Cato Manor, their vitality and humour, pain and humiliation: a vibrant, racially integrated community destroyed by the South African apartheid regimes notorious Group Areas Act. The book seeks to redress that marginalisation and awaken readers to the bravery and creativity of a small, defiant community in the face of forced removals and social injustice. This book reveals Govenders central concern for human dignityhis innate sensitivity to the unspoken pain of oppressed people.The book invites the reader to connect and contrast Govender with a range of contexts and intertextualitiesfrom postcolonial to African continental, from the diasporic to the politically analogous. Govenders radical shift from colonial obeisance theatre to a revelation of raw existence and authentic living is reflected by questioning, discomforting and aggrieving.
