Discover the profound journey of self-discovery in J. M. Coetzee's **Youth**, a compelling narrative that explores the life of a young writer escaping the struggles of an apartheid South Africa. This **B-format paperback**, published in 2020 by The Text Publishing Company, offers 192 pages of rich storytelling and deep introspection. As John flees to London in the early 1960s, he faces the harsh realities of adapting to a new life while grappling with his creative aspirations. Instead of the freedom he seeks, he finds himself ensnared in a mundane computer programming job and ephemeral relationships that leave him feeling more isolated than ever. **Youth** is not merely a novel; it is a powerful reflection on the artist's journey amidst societal burdens. This book is ideal for readers interested in autobiographical literature, South African history, and the struggles of a young artist.
