Life Times - Nadine Gordimer

A selection of short stories written to date by Nobel Laureate
Nadine Gordimer, Life Times reveals her acute understanding of
human nature and paints a fascinatingly original portrait of South
Africa. Whether focusing on politics, sexuality, race, love, or loss,
Gordimer maps out the terrain of human relationships with razor-sharp
psychological insight and a stunning lack of sentimentality. Complex
and multifaceted, her stories challenge us, time and again, to examine
the conflict between our actions and our unspoken desires. This
powerful collection, which includes two new stories, is a testament to
Gordimer's literary genius and the ongoing power and relevance of her
vision.
