July's People is a 1981 novel by South African writer Nadine Gordimer. The story is set in a dystopian South Africa, where a racial civil war has broken out. A liberal white family, the Smales, flees Johannesburg with the help of their black servant, July, who takes them to his home village in the interior of the country. There, the Smales must adapt to a new life under July's care, reversing power dynamics and exposing the complexities of apartheid and race relations in South Africa. The novel explores themes of race, class, gender, and the disintegration of social structures in times of crisis.
Nadine Gordimer was a South African writer and political activist. She received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1991, recognised as a writer "who through her magnificent epic writing has ... been of very great benefit to humanity".
