The provocative Booker Prize winning novel from Nobel laureate, J.M. Coetzee

Compulsively readable... A novel that not only works its spell but makes it impossible for us to lay it aside once we've finished reading it. --The New Yorker

At fifty-two, Professor David Lurie is divorced, filled with desire, but lacking in passion. When an affair with a student leaves him jobless, shunned by friends, and ridiculed by his ex-wife, he retreats to his daughter Lucy's smallholding. David's visit becomes an extended stay as he attempts to find meaning in his one remaining relationship. Instead, an incident of unimaginable terror and violence forces father and daughter to confront their strained relationship and the equallity complicated racial complexities of the new South Africa.

2024 marks the 25th Anniversary of the publication of Disgrace
