Nadine Gordimer has announced her retirement from fiction writing, in an interview with WorldPost’s Michael Skafidas.


In the interview, Gordimer also debunks the notion that she helped Mandela compose his famous Rivonia Trial speech, and delivers a passionate argument in favour of “unplugged” reading and writing:
The WorldPost: Are you working on a new novel?
Gordimer: Actually no. I wrote 15 novels and 12 books of short stories and quite a number of non-fiction. I have been writing since a very long time. I started getting published in little magazines when I was 13 or 14 years old. So, I feel, you know, you can’t be greedy! Also, now my abilities would fail me. I am still writing some articles but in terms of novel writing I think I am done.
