en-wikipedia-org-8430		Nadine Gordimer - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	6928	903	71	Nadine Gordimer (20 November 1923 – 13 July 2014) was a South African writer, political activist and recipient of the 1991 Nobel Prize in Literature. The arrest of her best friend, Bettie du Toit,[13] in 1960 and the Sharpeville massacre spurred Gordimer's entry into the anti-apartheid movement.[5] Thereafter, she quickly became active in South African politics, and was close friends with Nelson Mandela's defence attorneys (Bram Fischer and George Bizos) during his 1962 trial.[5] She also helped Mandela edit his famous speech "I Am Prepared to Die", given from the defendant's dock at the trial.[14] When Mandela was released from prison in 1990, she was one of the first people he wanted to see.[5] The Late Bourgeois World was Gordimer's first personal experience with censorship; it was banned in 1976 for a decade by the South African government.[12][15] A World of Strangers was banned for twelve years.[12] Other works were censored for lesser amounts of time.
