After years teaching Romantic poetry in Cape Town, David Lurie has an
impulsive affair with a student.
The affair sours; he is denounced and summoned before a committee of
inquiry. Willing to admit his guilt, but refusing to yield to pressure
to repent publicly, he resigns and retreats to his daughter Lucy’s
isolated smallholding. For a time, his daughter’s influence and the
natural rhythms of the farm promise to harmonise his discordant life.
But the balance of power in the country is shifting. He and Lucy become
victims of a savage and disturbing attack which brings into relief all
the faultlines in their relationship.
