In this article, the aim is to examine how Helon Habila deliberately links disability, precarity and narrative agency through the presentation of several disabled characters who are also incidentally presented as story-tellers in two novels, Waiting for an Angel (2003) and Measuring Time (2007). However, they do more than just tell stories – they also use the feature of disability as an anchor around which to construct their narratives. The article, therefore, advances the argument that, in the selected texts, Habila challenges the association of the disabled body with precarity, mainly through illustrating the agency accorded to that body through the narrativisation. Further, the setting of civil war in the two texts is highlighted as a particularly disabling environment, which Habila criticises through these characters.","PeriodicalId":52015,"journal":{"name":"Current Writing-Text and Reception in Southern Africa","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2020-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1013929X.2020.1795351","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46003258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It argues that Galgut’s novel does not simply rehearse the tropes of South Africa’s literature of crisis, but rather subjects them to extended metafictional and ironic critique. Among the targets of Galgut’s satire is the state of petrified suspension that regualrly marks the white post-apartheid condition and which is undergirded, he shows, by a residual archive of pastoral and colonial scripts. These scripts make the realisation of what Paul Gilroy has called a “new cosmopolitanism” (2005: 287) in South Africa impossible, but they can be dispelled, the novel suggests, by cultivating modes of ironic self-awareness in which we come to understand our alterity as the very enabling condition of forming a life with others.","PeriodicalId":52015,"journal":{"name":"Current Writing-Text and Reception in Southern Africa","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1013929X.2020.1743030","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44579624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The novels use the trope of the house to represent the psychological and social traumas of apartheid and post-apartheid South Africa. They also use the mythopoeic cyclical journey to describe psychological responses to trauma. This is akin both to the psychoanalytic method and to the mythic journey back into the past to uncover repressed memories. Using Freudian psychoanalysis, we divide the exploration of this trauma into three different parts: deception, absence and substitution. Trauma is not contained in a single event. Its effects are felt in the deception which underpins the original event and furthered by the sense of absence that arises and which must then be alleviated by finding a substitute. This attempt is itself traumatic.","PeriodicalId":52015,"journal":{"name":"Current Writing-Text and Reception in Southern Africa","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1013929X.2020.1743029","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45874456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this novel, Llosa dramatises in fictional form the worldview of the Machiguenga Indians of Peru. He constructs the voices of two university friends in Lima: those of Saúl Zuratas and an unnamed narrator. Chapter by chapter, through their juxtaposed conversations, visits to the remote jungles of Cusco and Madre de Dios in eastern Peru, and Saúl’s narration of the stories he tells the Machiguengas, the reader encounters the worldview of this small isolated tribe. Their cosmology values and customs are revealed to be ecologically sensitive, offering an interconnected communal vision on which the survival of the ecosphere depends.","PeriodicalId":52015,"journal":{"name":"Current Writing-Text and Reception in Southern Africa","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1013929X.2020.1743033","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45565103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A prize-winning novel in South Africa, Lost Ground has taxed interpretation. Is it a detective novel, a novel of ‘gay’ relationships, or a novel of oblique rather than direct political observations on ‘post-apartheid’ South Africa? I argue that the novel is all the above, but tangentially. More centrally, I argue that Lost Ground explores commitment and non-commitment to both a home place and a place of exile; that Heyns is too subtle a novelist to promote an either/or response to a situation which, at least in the narrative, subjects despair to a muted redemption. If the protagonist does not find a home on his ‘home visit,’ neither does he find equanimity in his thoughts of a return to London. Yet, his experience in his brief return to the town of his earlier life grants him fresh insight into his own vulnerability.","PeriodicalId":52015,"journal":{"name":"Current Writing-Text and Reception in Southern Africa","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1013929X.2020.1743027","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46650531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
