i think this a good book which had a good use of repetition and an engaing plot. i didn't make the strong impact on me that i thought it would, so perhaps i would do with rereading it, maybe this time physically as i might've not been as engaged because of the audio format.

I don’t think I get it…
But maybe I’m too stupid idk? The repetitive nature of the dialogue was not for me tho.

"Cry, the beloved country, for the unborn child that is the inheritor of our fear. Let him not love the earth too deeply. Let him not laugh too gladly when the water runs through his fingers, nor stand too silent when the setting sun makes red the veld with fire. Let him not be too moved when the birds of his land are singing, nor give too much of his heart to a mountain or a valley. For fear will rob him of all if he gives too much."
