In the Fog of the Seasons' End is a 1972 novel by South African novelist Alex La Guma.[1] Like many of La Guma's other novels, it is focused on challenging the social systems of apartheid in South Africa.[1][2] The main character in the novel, Beukes, is an organizer of an anti-apartheid underground.[3] The novel was dedicated to Basil February and other resistance fighters who died in Zimbabwe in 1967.[3] The novel has been extensively explored as part of marxist literary criticism, while reflecting on La Guma's marxist political philosophy.[4]
The title comes from the last line of a poem from Conte Saidon Tidiany.[3] The novel was published with only 181 pages, with some critics describing it as merely a novella.[3]
