DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe first novel by Mongane Serote since his acclaimed To Every Birth Its Blood, Gods of Our Time traces the latter years of the liberation struggle in South Africa and successfully conveys the bewilderment and uncertainty that were the experience of those involved in the historic events of this time. Unique in the multitude of characters who enter the pages in a seemingly random manner and then inexplicably leave again, the novel accurately portrays the surreal mood of the day when people really did come and go, frequently disappearing without a trace. Gods of Our Time is a challenging and enriching novelistic experience, one that addresses an important moment in South African history, and in many ways exemplifies the shifts taking place in the literature of this country.
