Main Assignment Question

In discussing postmodernism, scholar Linda Hutcheon states, “Postmodernism is a
contradictory phenomenon that uses and abuses, installs and then subverts, the very
concepts it challenges” (1988: 3). With this perspective in mind, analyse how J.M.
Coetzee's Waiting for the Barbarians embodies postmodern characteristics. Select a
passage from the novel that you believe exemplifies its postmodern aspects. Write an
essay arguing why this passage is representative of postmodernism in literature. Your
analysis should focus on one to three elements of postmodernism.
