Answer: Gordimer´s political beliefs are reflected in this story in a way that she puts her view with the device os negatie dialects. For example: “art is the negative knowledge of the
actual world” (“Reconciliation Under Duress” ). Rather, art explores what is not known and
as Adorno explains, “art does not become knowledge with reference to mere immediate reality”
. Throughout her novels, Gordimer avoids references to the “immediate reality.” As Ettin
explains, we never get a full picture of the plot and instead the reader must orient himself by considering what has not been said. As Gordimer draws on the theories of Adorno, she portrays the strong appeal of this German, Jewish theorist, further distancing herself from the genre of

Answer:

Explanation:
The "Light of Ghandi's Lamp" is a story about the "apartheids'" struggle against the authorities such as the Police in Johannesburg. The story focuses on the capture of Anita and the narrator's <em>(Anita's brother) </em>thoughts on how she was doing in prison.
The narrator went to the station to know about her sister's condition and to tell them about how good of a person and sister she was. There he met Anita's jailer who looked gentler than what he imagined. Later on, he realized that the jailer actually lied to Anita about many things. He tried to <em>destabilize her emotions </em>but Anita counteracted it by<em> singing songs</em> and <em>talking about her life</em>. With these, Anita and Richard were sent home.
