J.M. Coetzee and the Novel: Writing and Politics after Beckett - Oxford English Monographs
Hayes, Patrick (Teaching Fellow in English Literature at St John's College, Oxford)
This book argues that the significance of Coetzee's complex and finely-nuanced fiction lies in the acuity with which it both explores and develops the tradition of the novel - ranging from Cervantes, Defoe, and Richardson, to Dostoevsky, Kafka, and Beckett - as part of a sustained attempt to rethink the relationship between writing and politics.
