5.0 out of 5 stars Gordimer quietly exposes South Africa, July 5, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Lying Days (Mass Market Paperback)
If you want real African literature, skip Poisonwood Bible, and read Nadine Gordimer's Lying Days. She powerfully reveals the many layers of South African life back in the days of the Struggle without advancing her own political agenda or point of view. Gordimer's unabashed prose will break your soul with its brilliant clarity and eloquence.

5.0 out of 5 stars At last a female coming-of-age story, February 9, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Lying Days (Mass Market Paperback)
I couldn't have timed my reading of this book any better. The book's treatment of the artistic conciousness vs. the social conscience is excellent. Nadine Gordimer is one of the very few authors who has managed to indulge her creative side and be an activist for social change. This inspires me.
