Bøker av Barbara Boswell

An instant classic, the lies and betrayals of love and party politics are told in gorgeous prose with an ear for our time's intimate and public language. The Comrade's Wife follows a turbulent marriage between a rising politician and an academic, told through her life and lens.

Critically 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 critically interrogates narrow ideas of nationalism.
