J.M. Coetzee's full name is John Michael Coetzee. Born in Cape Town, South Africa, in 1940, Coetzee is a writer and critic who uses the political situation in his homeland as a backdrop for many of his novels. Coetzee published his first work of fiction, Dusklands, in 1974. Another book, Boyhood, loosely chronicles an unhappy time in Coetzee's childhood when his family moved from Cape Town to the more remote and unenlightened city of Worcester. Other Coetzee novels are In the Heart of the Country and Waiting for the Barbarians. Coetzee's critical works include White Writing and Giving Offense: Essays on Censorship. Coetzee is a two-time recipient of the Booker Prize and in 2003, he won the Nobel Literature Award.
A searing portrait of a young colonial in early 1960s London from the two-time winner of the Booker Prize. Set against the background of the 1960s - Sharpeville, the Cuban missile crisis, Vietnam Youthis a remarkable portrait of a consciousness, isolated and adrift, turning in on itself. The narrator ofYouth, a student in the South Africa of the 1950s, studies mathematics, reads poetry, saves money, trying to ensure that when he escapes to the real world, wherever that may be, he will be prepared to experience life to its full intensity and transform it into art. Arriving in London, however, he finds neither poetry nor romance. Instead he succumbs to the monotony of life as a computer programmer, from which random, loveless affairs offer no relief. Devoid of inspiration, he stops writing. An awkward colonial, a constitutional outsider, he begins a dark pilgrimage in which he is continually tested and continually found wanting.

評分库切是一个南非作家。而南非恰好是我那106天航程中最无法忘怀的一站。开普敦的一切都令我困惑且惊讶。像开普敦这样明目张胆地将愤怒仇恨与繁华欢笑并置在一起的城市,除了里约热内卢之外大概再也数不出几个。是,所有的超级城市都是光与影、爱和恨的综合体,有富翁与优雅妇人...
評分《青春》读毕。一直特别关注那些老者或逝者年轻的时候,他们在怎么想,做什么。这是时间紧迫感所致。 《青春》和前阵子的《流动的盛宴》都是讲述年轻的时候。“年轻的时候”,多么好的时候,那时未来还是谜,不管他们痛苦或者欢喜,共通的是雄心。 这两本都喜欢,《青春》更喜...
