At the conference, critic Derek Attridge suggested that Coetzee’s relocation to Australia has allowed him some distance from the oppressive political context that impressed itself upon his writing in South Africa, and that The Childhood of Jesus, with its Kafkaesque emptying of its protagonists’ subject positions, is Coetzee’s first truly Australian or “Adelaidean” novel. Since his move to Australia in 2002, Coetzee has in his fiction focused increasingly on Australian social and political contexts (Diary of a Bad Year, for example, discusses the Howard government and immigration), settings (Slow Man is located in Adelaide, Diary of a Bad Year in Sydney) and writers (particularly Patrick White and Gerald Murnane).Ĭoetzee’s engagement with his Australian context can be seen in more oblique ways, too.

But does it make sense to think of Coetzee as an Australian writer?
