Beethoven Was One-sixteenth Black

$33.30
Condition: BRAND NEW
ISBN: 9780747593843
Format: Trade paperback (UK)
Year: 2008
Publisher: Bloomsbury


Description:
This rich story collection will be a reminder to Nadine Gordimer's countless admirers, and a taster for the uninitiated, of her imaginative power. A woman gauges the state of her marriage by the tone of her husband's cello; a wife reads her husband's mood by the scent in the nape of his neck; a newly emigrated couple are divided by visual obsession, he with his native Budapest, she with South African suburbia.




With consummate artistry and unexpected flashes of humour, Gordimer illustrates the showdowns, standoffs and highlights of human intimacy while penetrating the nuances of immigration, national identity and race.
