Description
"In the 1980s, South African literary debates were preoccupied with the issue of political responsibility and various aspects of literary texts were largely ignored. By focusing on the predicament of literary writing in times of historical turmoil, Writing in Crisis investigates three central apartheid-era texts that attempt to engage a cultural form and deviate from it at the same time." "For students and scholars, Writing in Crisis is an accessible and invaluable addition to South African literary criticism."--Jacket.
