Coetzee's corpus of writings, chosen for the book, derives significance as a seminal representative of South African socio-cultural politics. The choice of theoretical framework, Intertextuality, for analysis, brings forth, more poignantly, principles transcending the domains of ethnicities and nationalities. The author of this book has taken pain-staking effort to bring forth Coetzee, a Booker Prize winner, not as a writer who is regionally (South-Africa) ideologue (biased towards a section), but as a harbinger and disseminator of universal human issues as well as values that have stood and shall stand the test of time.
