Waiting for the Barbarians
Tags: general-fiction, favorite-fiction,
I’ve read a number of Coetzee’s books, and this one is my favorite. It’s been a few years since I read it, but it made quite an impact. It’s not quite as dark as Disgrace. I haven’t read every book out there, but among the ones I’ve read, this and John Williams' Stoner are the two best novels of the late 20th century.
This is another one I need to re-read. Someday, I’ll write a proper review.
