This assignment comprises TWO sections. Both sections are compulsory.

knowledge and experience, as well as how it has informed your appreciation of novels.

or fantasy novels. Share the title and author of a South African novel you have read (if
you have read one). Does it have any similarities with Small Things? Mention a few.

(Elaborate) Which ones did you struggle with? (Expand)

Reflective essay!
Reflecting on Unit 4 of my study guide, I realize how much it has shaped my
understanding and appreciation of novels. In terms of my previous reading experience, I
have explored various genres like crime thrillers, romance, and science fiction. One South
African novel that stands out to me is "Disgrace" by J.M. Coetzee. While "Disgrace" and
"Small Things" have different focuses and themes, they both delve into the complexities of
human experiences within the South African context. They both tackle issues related to
personal identity, societal challenges, and the lingering effects of historical events on
individuals' lives.
