Waiting for the Barbarians by J. M. Coetzee

J. M. Coetzee's prize-winning novel is a startling allegory of the war between oppressor and oppressed. The Magistrate is not simply a man living through a crisis of conscience in an obscure place in remote times; his situation is that of all men living in unbearable complicity with regimes that ignore justice and decency. This 2004 Vintage (UK) Paperback is in good condition. Notes in pen about the book on title and following page.
