The following entry provides criticism on Gordimer's short fiction from 1994 through 2003. For criticism of Gordimer's short fiction published prior to 1994, see SSC, Volume 17. INTRODUCTION The Nobel Prize-winning Gordimer explores the effects and aftermath of South Africa's apartheid system on both ruling whites and oppressed Blacks. Although the political conditions of apartheid, which were in place from 1948 until 1990, are essential to the themes of her work, Gordimer focuses primarily on the complex human tensions generated by those conditions. Lauded for her authentic portrayals of Black African culture, Gordimer is also praised for using precise detail to evoke both the physical landscape of South Africa and the human predicaments of a racially polarized society. Biographical Information Gordimer was born on November 20, 1923, in Springs, South Africa, the daughter of Jewish emigrants, her father from Lithuania and her mother from England. Due to a heart ailment, Gordimer was withdrawn from school and restricted from normal childhood activity at a young age. She received occasional tutoring and read voraciously. She began to write in earnest as a response to the racial divisions she observed, publishing her first short story at fifteen. She briefly attended the University of the Witwatersrand, and in 1949 moved permanently to Johannesburg. By the early 1950s she had published two short story collections

Member of jury at the Cannes Film Festival in 1995 Author of successful novels such as "The Lying Day" (1953), "The Conservationist" (1974) or "The Pickup" (2001). Most of her books deal with the political and moral situation in her home country South Africa.

69. The Pickup: Nadine Gordimer This made me wonder if other middleeastern newspapers reviewed nadine gordimer s works and how these reviews might differ from the U.S. reviews. http://cornellreading.typepad.com/the_pickup/nadine_gordimer/index.html

The Pickup Nadine Gordimer August 02, 2007 Film of The Pickup, coming 2009? Another posting from Ariela Rutkin-Becker: A portion of you probably just got excited, thinking that you could get away with watching the movie instead of reading the NSRP book- until you saw the expected release date, when you will, most likely, be a junior. A bit too late to start the New Student Reading Project A portion of you probably called my bluff immediately. After all, Gordimer’s writing style in and of itself is enough to make converting The Pickup into a screenplay, into a Herculean feat. And would the plot work to create a full-length film? I’m not sure. But- they seem to turn everything into movies these days. Hypothetically, if The Pickup were to become a movie, who could we see playing Julie? Ibrahim? What would their theme songs be- different for each one? I imagine The Table at the EL-AY cafe having its own theme song, an avant garde creation penned by “the poet laureate.” And I bet that, due to Gordimer’s anti-apartheid activism in her country, she would be sure to suggest native, socially-conscious groups such as Ladysmith Black Mambazo , and the solo singer/poet Abdullah Ibrahim - coincidentally enough, a combination of Abdu’s two names in the novel.

Get a Life by Nadine Gordimer Get a Life begins with Paul Bannerman, a South African ecologist, being treated for thyroid cancer with radioactive iodine. To spare his wife and child any peril from the radioactivity, he returns to his parents' home to recuperate. He's returned to his childhood state, being cared for by his mother, a civil rights lawyer, and the black housekeeper who's been with the family his whole life. Paul's wife, an advertising executive, realizes that her clients are facilitating the foreign corporations who want to take advantage of liberal land use laws for their own interests. Paul's illness forces them all the re-evaluate both their lives and the new challenges facing their country. Nadine Gordimer's has received mostly positive reviews with the Philadelphia Inquirer saying, "At first whiff, Get a Life feels an odd title for this novel. But as the action progresses, and Gordimer masterfully grinds her yarn to a quivering conclusion, no answers have been provided, and the moniker she has given this provocative book seems perfect."

72. Nadine Gordimer: Crimes Of Conscience nadine gordimer was born November 20, 1923, in Springs, a small mining town on the East Rand about thirty miles from Johannesburg, South Africa. http://www.sdsmt.edu/online-courses/is/hum375/gordimer.html

Nadine Gordimer: Crimes of Conscience The Author The Novel Questions for Reflection Works Cited 1. The Author The Anatomy of Melancholy w ith equal enjoyment) she prepared herself to be a writer. Perhaps Gordimer would have become a writer even without her unusual childhood; her interest in reading and writing predated her illness; in fact, she wrote her first poem at age nine. There is lit tle doubt, however, that her enforced isolation accelerated the process. At age thirteen, she began writing for the children's page of the Johannesburg Sunday Express. At age fifteen, she published her first short story in The Forum, a South African journal. In 1949, her first volume of short stories, Face to Face, was published in South Africa. The following year, she began publishing stories in The New Yorker, and soon there-after her writing began appearing in other American journals, such as Virginia Quarterly Review and the Yale Review The Lying Days , was published in 1953. By that time, she had married, was divorced, and had an eighteen-month-old baby to support. Her early short stories, those written before 1953, focus on the daily lives of the poor white class and show little political consciousness. In fact, Gordimer acknowledges that her full awareness of black Africans and their paradoxical position in their own country (par ticularly after the Afrikaner Nationalist government assumed power in 1948 and instituted its repressive apartheid laws) developed with incredible slowness. Perhaps this is not surprising considering the life she led among white people whose very existenc e depended on the pretense that blacks do not exist except as a permanent underclass of servants and laborers. Yet, the politics of South Africa, particularly its apartheid and censorship laws, became her central concern. Her writing constitutes a mercile ss scrutiny of that society and of her own developing consciousness and role within that society.

"She is noted for her major anti-apartheid themes of exile and alienation in "Burger's Daughter," 1979; won Nobel Prize for Literature, 1991." Truth isn't always beauty, but the hunger for it is." Responsibility is what awaits outside the Eden of Creativity "The creative act is not pure. History evidences it. Sociology extracts it. The writer loses Eden, writes to be read and comes to realize that he is answerable." "The gap between the committed and the indifferent is a Sahara whose faint trails, followed by the mind's eye only, fade out in sand." "Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it. It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever."

80. Gifts Of Speech - Nadine Gordimer by nadine gordimer South African Writer/Nobel Laureate. December 7, 1991 at at Stockholm Concert Hall, Stockholm, Sweden. In the beginning was the Word. http://gos.sbc.edu/g/gordimer.html

THE NOBEL FOUNDATION Nobel Lecture Writing And Being by Nadine Gordimer South African Writer/Nobel Laureate December 7, 1991 at at Stockholm Concert Hall, Stockholm, Sweden In the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God, signified God's Word, the word that was Creation. But over the centuries of human culture the word has taken on other meanings, secular as well as religious. To have the word has come to be synonymous with ultimate authority, with prestige, with awesome, sometimes dangerous persuation, to have Prime Time, a TV talk show, to have the gift of the gab as well as that of speaking in tongues. The word flies through space, it is bounced from satellites, now nearer than it has ever been to the heaven from which it was believed to have come. But its most significant transformation occured for me and my kind long ago, when it was first scratched on a stone tablet or traced on papyrus, when it materialized from sound to spectacle, from being heard to being read as a series of signs, and then a script; and travelled through time from parchment to Gutenberg. For this is the genesis story of the writer. It is the story that wrote her or him into being. It was, strangely, a double process, creating at the same time both the writer and the very purpose of the writer as a mutation in the agency of human culture. It was both ontogenesis as the origin and development of an individual being, and the adaptation, in the nature of that individual, specifically to the exploration of ontogenesis, the origin and development of the individual being. For we writers are evolved for that task. Like the prisoners incarcerated with the jaguar in Borges' story
