Shy Nobel winner dedicates prize to mother
J.M. Coetzee of South Africa, left, receives the Nobel Prize in literature from King Carl Gustaf of Sweden. Story Tools And for whom, anyway, do we do the things that lead to Nobel prizes if not for our mothers? J.M. Coetzee YOUR E-MAIL ALERTS South Africa Australia Cape Town (South Africa) Fiction or Create your own Manage alerts What is this? STOCKHOLM, Sweden (Reuters) South African novelist J.M. Coetzee on Wednesday dedicated his Nobel literature prize to his mother and lamented she did not live to see him win. "And for whom, anyway, do we do the things that lead to Nobel prizes if not for our mothers?" Coetzee asked an audience of 1,300 dignitaries at a glittering Nobel banquet. "Mommy, mommy, I won a prize! That's wonderful my dear. Now eat your carrots before they get cold." "Why must our mothers be 99 and long in the grave before we can come running home with a prize that will make up for all the trouble we have been to them," the usually shy Coetzee said. Prior to his banquet speech, which received loud applause, Coetzee had uttered barely a whisper in public outside formal readings.

N ovelista surafricano. Nació en Ciudad del Cabo y estudió en las universidades de Ciudad del Cabo y Texas. Desde 1971 da clases en la Universidad de Ciudad del Cabo. Sus novelas, a menudo alegóricas o simbólicas, atacan el sistema del apartheid en Suráfrica o echan abajo los ejemplos históricos del colonialismo.

Ganó el premio Booker por Vida y época de Michael K (1983), historia de un luchador por la libertad. Otras novelas son Tierras en penumbra En el corazón del país Esperando a los bárbaros (1980) y Foe (1986).

REVIEWS
Elizabeth Costello

"Coetzee creates a formidable, even charismatic stand-in . . . In light of its diffuse and rarefied ambitions, 'Elizabeth Costello' proves improbably inviting at the simple narrative level . . ." Youth
". . . as the story Coetzee chooses to tell about his youth, this is an awfully strange one, beginning too late to show us why he wanted to become a writer, ending too early to show us how he eventually became one." Stranger Shores: Literary Essays, 1986-1999
"Coetzee is that rare breed, an academic who is also a world-class writer, and this latest collection is informed as much by the novelist's keen eye as it is by the theorist's obsessions." Disgrace
". . . brief but oddly expansive . . . A range of concerns has been woven seamlessly together . . . There is a profound meditation on . . . the lives and the rights of animals . . . extraordinary . . ." Boyhood: Scenes From Provincial Life
". . . [a] terse, gritty memoir . . . What to say about all of this, other than that Coetzee is not merely a born writer, but one born for South Africa? From early on, he evinced a special gift for dread and a disposition keyed to intimate knowledge of the transactions of power . . ."

J.M. Coetzee
South Africa's reclusive Nobel Laureate.
By Rob Nixon
Posted Wednesday, Nov. 5, 2003, at 1:33 PM PT
It is surely a sign of a writer's achievement when old work can reacquire a startling, contemporary urgency. Of no recent Nobelist is this truer than J.M. Coetzee (pronounced cut-ZEE-uh). The prize may be awarded for a lifetime's achievement, but this Nobel feels as if it has been awarded for Coetzee's great allegorical novels from the early '80s, Waiting for the Barbarians and Life and Times of Michael K , which are uncannily in keeping with the temper of our War-on-Terror times. Reread today, the novels are chillingly prescient. This is a kind of historical joke, because Coetzee has long stressed the ahistorical nature of his work. South Africa received its only other literary Nobel 12 years ago, when the Swedish committee awarded Nadine Gordimer, the doyenne of antiapartheid writers, the prize a year after Nelson Mandela strode triumphantly from prison. But where Gordimer has tended to write directly out of her historical moment and speak (in fiction and in essays) back into it, Coetzee has recoiled from attempts to read his novels through the politics of the time. (When there was talk of turning Waiting for the Barbarians into a movie, he reputedly made it a condition that the film be set outside his homeland so as not to compromise the novel's allegorical placelessness.) He has recoiled, too, from the public demands of the writer-activist. A formidable recluse, he is the most ascetic and cerebral of contemporary writers. Dry wit doesn't get any drier than one South African writer's remark, on hearing that J.M. Coetzee had landed the Nobel: "We can be proud of our homeboy." Coetzee is a homeboy who doesn't hang.

    The Nobel Prize in Literature for 2003 was awarded to the South African writer John Maxwell Coetzee.
    An excerpt from
    Giving Offense
    Essays on Censorship
    by J. M. Coetzee Introduction Writing does not flourish under censorship. This does not mean that the censor's edict, or the internalized figure of the censor, is the sole or even the principal pressure on the writer: there are forms of repression, inherited, acquired, or self-imposed, that can be more grievously felt. There may even be cases where external censorship challenges the writer in interesting ways or spurs creativity. But the Aesopian ruses that censorship provokes are usually no more than ingenious; while the obstacles that writers are capable of visiting upon themselves are surely sufficient in number and variety for them not to invite more. Nevertheless, for the common good, for the good of the state, apparatuses of regulation and control are from time to time set up, which grow and entrench themselves, as is the wont of bureaucracies. It is hard for any writer to contemplate the scale of such apparatuses without a disbelieving smile. If representations, mere shadows, are indeed so dangerous, one reflects, then surely the appropriate countermeasures are other representations, counterrepresentations. If mockery corrodes respect for the state, if blasphemy insults God, if pornography demeans the passions, surely it will suffice if stronger and more convincing countervoices are raised defending the authority of the state, praising God, exalting chaste love.

    Coetzee, J. M. Giving Offense Essays on Censorship . xii, 290 p. 1996 Cloth $24.95 0-226-11174-1 Spring 1996
    Paper $15.00 0-226-11176-8 Fall 1997 Winner of the 2003 Nobel Prize in Literature. J. M. Coetzee presents a coherent, unorthodox analysis of censorship from the perspective of one who has lived and worked under its shadow. The essays collected here attempt to understand the passion that plays itself out in acts of silencing and censoring. He argues that a destructive dynamic of belligerence and escalation tends to overtake the rivals in any field ruled by censorship. From Osip Mandelstam commanded to compose an ode in praise of Stalin, to Breyten Breytenbach writing poems under and for the eyes of his prison guards, to Aleksander Solzhenitsyn engaging in a trial of wits with the organs of the Soviet state, Giving Offense focuses on the ways authors have historically responded to censorship. It also analyzes the arguments of Catharine MacKinnon for the suppression of pornography and traces the operations of the old South African censorship system. "The most impressive feature of Coetzee's essays, besides his ear for language, is his coolheadedness. He can dissect repugnant notions and analyze volatile emotions with enviable poise."Kenneth Baker
