South African born author J.M. Coetzee, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2003, tries to draw the portrait of a nameless empire suffering under the consequences of a cordial hate which is actually based on nothing but ignorance. Waiting for the Barbarians deals with racial injustice, depression, sadism and especially, with hatred and fear.
