Nadine Gordimer: A Literary Icon from South Africa

Early Life and Education

Nadine Gordimer was born on November 20, 1923, in Springs, a mining town near Johannesburg in the Transvaal gold reef area. She pursued her higher education at the University of the Witwatersrand.

Literary Beginnings

In 1952, Gordimer published her first collection of short stories, "The Soft Voice of the Serpent." Her debut novel, "The Lying Days" (1953), offered a lyrical exploration of a young woman's awakening to love and social life in a mining town, during a family vacation by the seaside, and on a university campus in a big city.
