Gordimer, Nadine
View through CrossRef
AbstractA prolific South African novelist, short‐story writer, and essayist, Nadine Gordimer (1923–2014) was known for her opposition to apartheid and censorship. Her many honors included the Booker Prize (1974) and the Nobel Prize for Literature (1991). This entry outlines Gordimer's writing career in relation to the form of “internal colonialism” known as apartheid, and to the postcolonial condition of South Africa after apartheid. It describes how Gordimer's fiction, which combines critical realism with late‐modernist experimentation, articulates three phases: “liberal,” “radical,” and “post‐apartheid.”
