New collection of J.M. Coetzee's essays out now!

A wonderful new collection of J.M. Coetzee's literary essays is now available from good bookshops. Peter Craven called it a book that "casts all sort of gleaming spotlights, amid the shadows, from one of the major novelistic intelligences of our time", while Lauren Elkin described it as, not just literary criticism, but "an engaging series of master classes in novel writing" (The Guardian).
