Description and Table of Contents
Description
In the city of Johannesburg a father seeks his delinquent son. His search takes him through a labyrinth of murder, prostitution, racial hatred and, ultimately, reconciliation. In CRY, THE BELOVED COUNTRY Alan Paton addresses the problem of race relations in South Africa with the scrupulousness of the historian, the sensitivity of a poet. Forty years after its creation, it remains the classic narrative of racial tension - intensely pertinent, unforgettably poignant.
