Author: J. M. Coetzee
Title: Waiting for the Barbarians
Description: Vintage (UK) 2004 Paperback, 176pp. J. M. Coetzee's prize-winning novel is a startling allegory of the war between oppressor and oppressed. The Magistrate is not simply a man living through a crisis of conscience in an obscure place in remote times; his situation is that of all men living in unbearable complicity with regimes that ignore justice and decency. Notes in pen about the book on title and following page. (ISBN: 9780099465935). Good.
