Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. How do you eradicate contempt, especially when that contempt is founded on nothing more substantial than differences in table manners, variations in the structure of the eyelid? Shall I tell you what I sometimes wish? I wish that these barbarians would rise up and teach us a lesson, so that we would learn to respect them.After twenty years of peacefully running one of the Empires settlements, a magistrate takes pity on an enemy barbarian who has been tortured. He enters into an awkward intimate relationship with her, and then is himself imprisoned as an enemy of the state. Waiting for the Barbarians is a disturbing political fable about oppression, the fraught desire for reparation, and about living with a troubled conscience under an unjust regime. In examining who we think we are, Coetzee probes our dreams, thoughts, shame and desires.In awarding the Nobel Prize to Coetzee in 2003, the committee called this lauded novel a political thriller in the tradition of Joseph Conrad, in which the idealists naivete opens the gates to horror. Four modern classics by the great South African writer, J. M. Coetzee, re-released with stylish new covers and accompanied by introductions from some of Australias brightest writing talents Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. South Africa: Ravan Press, 1981. First African Paperback Edition, Second Printing, in English. . A near-fine copy in orange wraps with yellow and white lettering on the spine and front panel. There is little wear to the cover and no fading to the spine. One of the great books of the 20th century, Barbarians tells the tragic story of a Magistrate in a small African town who has been a loyal servant of the Empire, running the affairs of a tiny frontier settlement and ignoring the impending war with the barbarians. But then he witnesses the Empire's cruel and unjust treatment of prisoners of war and is jolted into sympathy for their victims. He commits a quixotic act of rebellion that brands him an enemy of the state. Coetzee's prize-winning novel is a dramatic recounting of the war between oppressor and oppressed. The Magistrate becomes a symbot of all men living in unbearable complicity with regimes that ignore justice and decency. Coetzee has won nearly every prize offered worldwide, topping it with the Nobel Prize in 2003. The book first appeared in England in 1980. He has signed this copy on the title page.
