Disgrace: A Novel

South Africa, the late nineties. The memory of apartheid is still fresh, a new reality has not yet been established, but Professor David Lurie feels that his life is quite settled. However, everything changes in an instant when Lurie decides... to seduce a student. The unequal love affair ends in Lurie’s utter disgrace – he is expelled from academic life and fired from the university. The professor has no choice but to go live with his daughter on a remote farm, where he will have to face another disgrace – in all its forms…
The novel «Disgrace» is a transparent, intense exploration of what shame means for each individual, and how the conditions in which we live constantly shape and alter this very concept. In 1999, J. M. Coetzee won the Booker Prize for the novel «Disgrace».
