Living in Hope and History

Few writers have so consistently taken stock of the society in which they have lived. In a letter to fellow Nobel Laureate Kenzaburo Oe, Nadine Gordimer describes this impressive volume as "a modest book of some of the non-fiction pieces I've written, a reflection of how I've looked at this century I've lived in". It is in fact, an extraordinary collection of essays, articles and addresses delivered over four decades.
including her Nobel Prize Lecture of 1991.
