Book excerpt: The book explores the complex problem of apartheid, racial segregation in South African society and the struggle against the “colour bar” represented in the fictional world of Nadine Gordimer, the Nobel Laureate of the South African Letters. It shows how Gordimer, a crusader for the human rights of black people, has launched a lifetime battle against the apartheid regime’s unjust and heartless censorship of creative writing and freedom of speech in South Africa by virtue of fictionalizing her human rights activism, thereby teaching humanity. It demonstrates how black people are denied their basic human rights from the cradle to the grave by the white chauvinistic apartheid regime. This volume is a space for scholars, writers and activists to debate issues related to race, class and human rights.
