14.01.2008 - Interpretation by dali48

Nadine Gordimer talks about her childhood in South Africa, - and as she became aware of the racism around her ... (Nadine Gordimer, Interview)

It took the realization that the spectrum - I use the old, concrete image of racism - was like the Gate of the Law in Kafka's parable - that remained closed to the petitioner all his life - because he did not understand that only he could open it ... (N. G., Banquet Sp. 1991)

Most works of Nadine Gordimer are about the moral and psychological tensions of her radically divided homeland. - She was a founding member of the "Congress of South African Writers", - and even at the height of the apartheid regime - she never took it into consideration to go into exile ...
Gordimer's "Burgers Daughter" (1979) was banned after the Soweto uprising. - Andre Brink's "Looking on Darkness" (1974) was banned by the authorities, - all 3 are among the most prominent white South African writers ...
Feelings of exile and alienation characterize her novels and short story collections - such as the "Soft Voice of the Serpent" (1956) and "Not for publication" (1960) ...

She has always tried to preserve her privacy - but her international fame and her lifelong role as a defender of freedom of expression in a police state, have forced her into the public ... (BBC 4, D.L.)

Gordimer Nobel Prize drew the spotlight on a country that is in the painful transition from an oppressive racism to a turbulent democracy ... (P. Wastberg)

For Gordimer, the novel and the short story are instruments to penetrate a society - that defends itself against investigations, - hides itself behind censorship and hypocrisy, - refuses to acknowledge its history, - and thus generates a grammar of lies - where capitalism, liberalism and Marxism mean the same thing:
An attack on the people. - She enters the most intimate human regions - in order to show how the private life is violated by informants and registries of race ...
To write out of the personal space and to publish - is the opposite of the police method to invade the homes in order to confiscate letters and diaries, - an act which saw the teenager Gordimer even when the police raided the room of a servant in her family's home ...
Because hardly anyone has alarmed the world so vividly - how apartheid undermines the relationships between people, - and  criminalizes innocent people ...
But the present results from the past, - and the contempt of apartheid for human life, - now manifests itself in street killings, massacres by gangs, and armed robbery ... (N. Gordimer, 1991)
