Book Talks: Cry, the Beloved Country (by Alan Paton)
Do you enjoy reading and talking about literature? Then join our weekly meeting of bookworms! Bring your book, your ideas and your questions! Newcomers are always welcome!
Cry, the Beloved Country, a 1948 novel by writer Alan Paton, remains one of the best-known works of South African literature. It is a social protest against the structures of the society that would later give rise to apartheid. Paton attempts to create an unbiased and objective view of the dichotomies it entails, depicting whites as affected by “native crime” while blacks suffer from instability and moral issues due to the breakdown of the tribal system.
Bitte ein eigenes Exemplar mitbringen. Die Bücher sind in der Stadtbibliothek Erlangen ausleihbar. Bitte lesen Sie bis zum ersten Treffen mindestens ein Drittel des Buches.
