Located in the college novel tradition, Close to Home explores a number of the themes common to the sub-genre, specifically the ennui of university students from a wealthy background. The story's characters have an excess of money, privilege and leisure time, which leads to boredom and ultimate tragedy. The protagonist, Faye, epitomises the stereotype of a spoiled Cape Town girl- a personality that turns out to have a lot in common with the magnetic but ultimately dangerous characters of some of the best-known college novels. 2014-09-30T13:36:13Z 2014-09-30T13:36:13Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/7765 eng application/pdf Department of English Language and Literature Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
