Wikipedia

None to Accompany Me is a 1994 novel by South African Nobel Winner Nadine Gordimer. It was published by Bloomsbury Publishing.

The novel follows the motifs and plot framework of a Bildungsroman, exploring the development of the main character, Vera Stark. The novel is set during the early 1990s in South Africa after the release of Nelson Mandela.

The novel focuses on Stark shedding personal ties to find her "true self" in a political cause: fighting apartheid as a civil rights lawyer. Her decisions also affect her friends, a Black African family who had lived in political exile: Sibongile and Didymus Maqoma.

The first printing of the novel included 60,000 copies.
