This article evaluates the role of J.M. Coetzee’s novels in addressing the social political and economic concerns of his society. It also establishes Coetzee’s opinion as the social, political and economic drama of post apartheid South Africa unfolds. In order to analyze the themes and features of styles in the selected text, the experience of South Africa society which for a very long time has been experimenting dissonance that seem to occur from the knowledge various individuals and communities which hold over each other, as a result different attitudes about each other has emerged which in turn inform their social political and economic relationships. Sociological theory is important for this study for it helps us to analyze the language of the text. Hence we have used this theory to explore how the selected text utilizes symbolism, allusion, irony we employ two theoretical frameworks. Foucault’s perception of power, authority, knowledge and truth within the wider postmodernism theory. In his analysis, Foucault demonstrate how power and authority are exercised in our societies, he also questions the concept of a singular objective truth that is transcendental instead he advocates for multiple and situated knowledge. The theory is appropriate in analyzing and paradox to enhance the communication about post apartheid South Africa social, political and economic realities. The study is divided into four main chapters. Chapter one form the introduction, while chapter two evaluate thematic concerns, chapter three analyses the features of style whereas chapter four conclude the study. The study uses purposive method based on Coetzee’s concerns and opinions about post apartheid South Africa.
