Recently read: Foe by J. M. Coetzee.
Before Dr. Bluemel assigned Foe to us I had not read much by Coetzee but had read about him. Foe is a fine retelling of the Robinson Crusoe story with a lot of postmodern tricks thrown in. In fact, in class we discussed this novel being the sort of prototypical postmodern novel to hand to someone who was not familiar with contemporary literature to check out. I don’t know if I totally agree with that, but I can get behind it.
