Abstract:This section of the 'Journal of Southern African studies' consists of a cluster of four specially commissioned articles on Nadine Gordimer, whose death in 2014 prompted a sense that a moment had arrived when it was worth gauging the continuing relevance of the work of a writer who testified to the quality of life in South Africa over more than half a century. Contributions: Gordimer's pathologies (Stephen Clingman); Then and now: Nadine Gordimer's 'Burger's Daughter' (1979) and 'No Time Like the Present' (2012) (Ileana Dimitriu); Prison and Political Struggle in Nadine Gordimer's 'Burger's Daughter' (Sorcha Gunne)'; The late Nadine Gordimer (Graham K. Riach). Notes, ref., sum. [ASC Leiden abstract]
