About

Nadine Gordimer's novel is a passionate narrative of the complex manifestations of that final test of human relations we call love. It moves with the restless pace of living itself; if it is a parable of present violence, it is also an affirmation of the will to reconciliation that starts where it must, between individual men and women.

Reviews

"Elegantly conceived, flawlessly executed . . . Gordimer tells a love story unlike any other I have ever read."
Jack Miles, The New York Times Book Review
"As the moral anatomy of a murder, The House Gun will seem to American readers closer to their own existence than many Gordimer books."
The Washington Post
"An intellectual thriller with a soap opera engine . . . Nothing short of epic. "
The Baltimore Sun
