John Maxwell Coetzee

Shame is a novel by J. M. Coetzee, published in 1999. It won the Booker Prize. The author was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature four years after its publication.

David, a twice-divorced intellectual, leads a comfortable but emotionally empty life, satisfying his needs through casual relationships, including visits to prostitutes. His life is shattered when he begins an illicit affair with a student, Melanie, which leads to accusations of abuse of power. Refusing to publicly express remorse, David resigns and loses his social status, and retreats to his daughter Lucy's farm, where she lives alone in the Eastern Cape, trying to survive by farming.

On the farm, David and Lucy are brutally attacked by three men, in which Lucy is raped and David is injured. The attack reveals deep social tensions and violence in post-apartheid South Africa, where power relations between whites and blacks are changing. Lucy, despite her trauma, refuses to leave the farm and faces the consequences in her own way, while David struggles to understand her decisions and his own role in a changing world. The novel explores themes of shame, guilt, morality, racism, gender relations, and reconciliation, as David, through volunteering at an animal shelter, begins to question his own values ​​and seek redemption.
