Burger's Daughter chronicles Rosa's painstaking journey to define herself beyond the legacy of a martyred father, as she navigates a world that sees her only as an extension of his cause. Gordimer constructs a narrative of extraordinary tension, moving between Rosa's inner torment and the brutal political landscape of a nation on the brink of revolution.\n\nNadine Gordimer, Nobel laureate and one of the most important voices in 20th-century literature, presents here a masterwork of moral and political complexity. Her prose is precise and unflinching, dissecting the machinery of oppression while illuminating the private cost of political inheritance. Published in 1979 and subsequently banned in South Africa, the novel stands as both a searing indictment of the apartheid regime and a deeply personal portrait of identity, loyalty, and conscience — a work that demands the reader confront the question of what we owe to history, and what history owes to us.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130505830619,"sku":"2026200010650-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/11e05b2a-8fe1-44c7-93bb-d7b0382d10b7.png?v=1786586345","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200010650-secondhand-burgers-daughter","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
