3.0 out of 5 stars
Captures Mood of Johannesburg,
This review is from: The Late Bourgeois World (Mass Market Paperback)
This is an odd work, perhaps because it is Gordimer's most autobiographical novel. There are few characters one can really identify with, but it is interesting to see how the author captures the disaffected of Johannesburg at a critical point in South African history. In sum, this is a decent first novel but little else.

A good read but not her best,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Late Bourgeois World (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a good short read and well worth the few hours it takes to get through it, but it is an earlier novel and not one of her best. If you haven't yet read any Nadine Gordimer, I recommend that first you try "None to Accompany Me," which is excellent.
