Review of 'Summertime (Import)' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
This was written in a style I just could not get into. I will add though that I haven't read anything else by Coetzee. I did not know I was starting a semi-autobiographical when I picked it up. Summertime might very well be GREAT if you have a previous knowledge of Coetzee's work. I say this because the entire novel seems to be trying to explain the reasons behind his general fiction writing. I guess I need to read something else by him to put this particular piece of work into frame.
