Trudno uwierzyć, że David Lurie, koneser kobiecych wdzięków i wielbiciel poezji romantycznej, częściej doświadcza nudy niż miłości.
Dwukrotnie rozwiedziony pięćdziesięcioletni profesor literatury na uniwersytecie w Kapsztadzie świadomie burzy swój święty spokój. Nawiązuje romans z młodziutką studentką i wkrótce potem, zaskarżony przez nią, traci pracę i szacunek otoczenia.
Wizyta córki Lucy i zmiana trybu życia ujawniają, że nie potrafi znaleźć wspólnego języka z innymi. Nie radzi też sobie z poczuciem winy za tragedię, która spotkała Lucy. W końcu każde z nich będzie musiało znaleźć własny sposób na to, jak żyć z piętnem hańby.

3.0 Disgrace
Very strong writing, but the plot and themes do not connect with me. Another book by a middle aged man about a middle aged man and his sexual desires. Feels a bit thin in its metaphors/analogies. Sometimes reads as frustrating non-committal to the themes it's raising.

This book was not for me. The dialogue was wooden, and I felt thoroughly unengaged throughout the whole story. I couldn't get into the mindset of any of the characters. Events would occur - many of them horrific - but they felt rather flat and distant. It's not that I wouldn't recommend the boo...

http://msarki.tumblr.com/post/69804648643/disgrace-by-j-m-coetzeeThroughout its entirety there is always a measure of wrestling, and therefore impossibly hard to pin down in the order of boxing this novel Disgrace into a neat and manageable package. I am afraid the book insists on speaking for itse...
