The Schooldays of Jesus is a 2016 novel by J. M. Coetzee. In July 2016, it was longlisted for the 2016 Man Booker Prize.

Background and publication

It is Coetzee's 13th novel and is a sequel to the 2013 novel The Childhood of Jesus.[1] It was published in Australia in February 2016[2][3] and in the UK in August 2016.[4]

It was also published in Spanish translation,[5] partly because it relates to Coetzee's interest in Argentine literature and resisting what he calls the "hegemony of the English language",[6] and Chinese,[7] and in ebook, audiobook, and Braille editions.[8]

Synopsis

It resumes the story of a young boy named David, who appears in The Childhood of Jesus, who is brought up in a foreign land.[1]

Reception

Upon release, it was generally well-received. According to review aggregator Book Marks, the novel received "mixed" reviews based on 13 critics reviews with 1 being "rave" and 3 being "positive" and 5 being "mixed" and 4 being "pan".[9] On Bookmarks Magazine May/June 2017 issue, a magazine that aggregates critic reviews of books, the book received a (3.0 out of 5) based on critic reviews.[10]
