Whiteness in works by Ivan Vladislavic

Abstract
This project is a literary study that will analyse the multiple ways in which whiteness is constructed within a selection of literary works by the South African novelist, Ivan Vladislavić.
The texts chosen for this project are the “The Book Lover” and “Courage” in Propaganda by
Monuments (1996), the novel The Restless Supermarket (2001) and his work The Exploded
View (2004). These works display the various and complex ways identities are constructed in
the context of a transitional period, and the varying degree of influence whiteness is given in
different contexts.
