DOWNLOAD EBOOKCritically examines influential novels in English by eminent black female writers Studying these writers' key engagements with nationalism, race and gender during apartheid and the transition to democracy, Barbara Boswell traces the ways in which black women's fiction criticality interrogates narrow ideas of nationalism. She examines who is included and excluded, while producing alternative visions for a more just South African society. This is an erudite analysis of ten well-known South African writers, spanning the apartheid and post-apartheid era: Miriam Tlali, Lauretta Ngcobo, Farida Karodia, Agnes Sam, Sindiwe Magona, Zoë Wicomb, Rayda Jacobs, Yvette Christiansë, Kagiso Lesego Molope, and Zukiswa Wanner. Boswell argues that black women's fiction could and should be read as a subversive site of knowledge production in a setting, which, for centuries, denied black women's voices and intellects. Reading their fiction as theory, for the first time these writers' works are placed in sustained conversation with each other, producing an arc of feminist criticism that speaks forcefully back to the abuse of a racist, white-dominated, patriarchal power.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIf Yasmin North knows one thing for sure, it’s that love sucks. That’s why she’s moving forward with her happily-ever-after solo plan, with the help of a sperm sample from a six-foot-two donor who apparently holds a doctorate in both computer science and social work. Meaning he’s brilliant and kind—talk about superior baby-making DNA. But when the sperm bank informs her the sperm she has her heart set on was mistakenly sold to her from the storage-only database, Yasmin declines the refund and sparks up a please-let-me-have-your-baby-batter email negotiation with the unnamed donor instead (albeit, not very successfully). Add in her mother’s prize-winning rooster terrorizing her around her parents’ farm and so far, her move back to Lonesome Point is proving less than ideal… The first time Noah O’Sullivan visited his cousin in Lonesome Point, Texas, he fell hard for the fun, quirky little town. So he’s not really surprised to find himself falling hard for a fun, quirky Lonesome Point girl. The moment Yasmin races past him, chased by a giant demon rooster, his gut utters two words—yes and mine. It’s clear he and Yasmin have an instant connection, but convincing the wounded woman to let him be her knight in faded blue jeans is proving harder than he expects. Especially when Noah discovers she’s the woman who was accidentally given his sperm sample… Previously published as Going Rate for Mr. Right © 2016 as a part of Erin Nicholas’s Sapphire Falls KindleWorld series.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKConsidering fiction from the colonial era to the present, State of Peril offers the first sustained, scholarly examination of rape narratives in the literature of a country that has extremely high levels of sexual violence. Lucy Graham demonstrates how, despite the fact that most incidents of rape in South Africa are not interracial, narratives of interracial rape have dominated the national imaginary. Seeking to understand this phenomenon, the study draws on Michel Foucault's ideas on sexuality and biopolitics, as well as Judith Butler's speculations on race and cultural melancholia. Historical analysis of the body politic provides the backdrop for careful, close readings of literature by Olive Schreiner, Sol Plaatje, Sarah Gertrude Millin, Njabulo Ndebele, J.M. Coetzee, Zoë Wicomb and others. Ultimately, State of Peril argues for ethically responsible interpretations that recognize high levels of sexual violence in South Africa while parsing the racialized inferences and assumptions implicit in literary representations of bodily violation.
