LITERARY SPACES IN THE SELECTED WORKS OF JM COE...

This book closely examines the processes governing the construction of literary spaces in the
selected works of J.M. Coetzee  focusing in particular on the writer¿s subversive and
destructive treatment of traditional modes of representation which participated in the imperial
enterprise and served to overcome the ontological insecurity of colonisers. This strategy
results in the formation of heterogenous  fluid and open locations which can be deciphered
along the postmodern spatial theories of Foucault  Augé  Deleuze and Guattari. The
transformation of topographies not only cleanses them of the conventional residue in
preparation for alternative spatial rearrangements  but also initiates processes which reverse
the colonising project by breaching the gap between the other and the self.
