Article number 10176757

The Wall of the Plague is set in South Africa during the apartheid era and follows the story of a writer who becomes increasingly entangled in political repression, censorship and moral responsibility. Through interrogations, surveillance and personal relationships, the novel explores the psychological impact of authoritarian power on both victims and collaborators. Brink examines themes of guilt, resistance, betrayal and the necessity of moral choice within an unjust system, using fiction as a means of confronting political violence and historical complicity.
