À propos de cet audio
After years teaching Romantic poetry at the Technical University of Cape Town, David Lurie, middle-aged and twice divorced, has an impulsive affair with a student. The affair sours, he is denounced and summoned before a committee of inquiry. Willing to admit his guilt, but refusing to yield to pressure to repent publicly, he resigns and retreats to his daughter Lucy's isolated smallholding.
For a time, his daughter's influence and the natural rhythms of the farm promise to harmonise his discordant life. But the balance of power in the country is shifting. He and Lucy become victims of a savage and disturbing attack which brings into relief all the faultlines in their relationship.
By the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature and twice winner of the Booker Prize.

One of the best audiobooks I have ever listened to
This book captures the tensions and moral dilemmas of intersecting societal change. Though specific to South Africa it has universal reach. Superb

Though devastating---this is a must-listen
For years, I avoided reading this book because I had read several reviews with spoilers.
I thought I knew it.
But when I read it for a recent class, I discovered how essential it is for understanding the world today.
Yes, this work is set in South Africa, but it is the story of most of the conflict we hear/experience today, because so much of the globe is post-colonial and this speaks to how deep that legacy of powerlessness goes.
Mr Klaff is a great narrator. Especially important in this novel because it is written in the first-person, and he captures the voice and dialect of David so well. Highly recommend the book and this reader.
