how many of the same themes in Gordimer's "1959: What is Apartheid?" are expressed in Fugard's "Master Harold". and the Boys

Both are about South Africa during apartheid era and share the themes of institutionalized racism and bigotry due to apathy and prejudice.

Hi Timims2001,

Your answer would be:

There are multiple themes such as; living in fear creates a prison of one's own making, Avoiding and withdrawing from what we fear, and to live happily ever after.
