redoubtably agree with the statement made about David Lurie in J.M Coetzee’s novel Disgrace. The first impression that I and most readers dig into is that David Lurie is a selfish‚ and disgusting pig. Once we become more open minded about David and look at other issues surrounding his pigish behaviours‚ we see that there is a combination of wreckless and humane characteristics‚ which in turn contradicts the other in the novel‚ as there is not one point where David Lurie is completely defined as one of the

The day David Biviano met Ana Hernandez was a very interesting day but little did they both know they would be such a big impact on one another’s lives. After that day they would constantly see each other around school but never think much about it.
