The Conservationist by Nadine Gordimer won the 1974 Booker-McConnell Prize and is a novel about a wealthy white industrialist named Mehring, who buys a farm and is confronted by the unsettling discovery of a dead body on his property. The book uses a series of fragmented incidents to reveal the protagonist's racism, his dissatisfaction with his privileged life, and the systemic injustice of apartheid, ultimately leading to its ban in South Africa.
