Description
Summary The first half of this essay explores the lineaments of dissident or queer desire which Coetzee's work traces post-1989, almost as if in response to the "liberation" of the discourse of love that was meant to follow the fall of apartheid. In its second half the essay suggests that, far from being liberatory, queer desire in the later Coetzee, and especially in Elizabeth Gostello (2004), baulks from an identification with otherness, especially where that otherness takes on womanly form, instead collaborating with misogyny.
