Cry, The Beloved Country
By Alan Paton
320 pages;
Scribner/Simon & Schuster
The saga of Stephen Kumalo—his struggle as a father, as a
reverend, as a brother and as a man—captures the very essence of South Africa
in transition from a rural, tribal nation of spiritual heritage to a modern
country of big cities, violence and upheaval. The pain of this transition is
burned throughout part one of this novel. —Oprah
