The Story of an African Farm by Olive Schreiner

5.0

Melancholy ending but such real and flawed characters ... Lyndall with her fiery ambition but perpetual depression, Em feeling constantly second best in her complacency & Waldo tormented by spiritual doubt & existential angst only to realise that it was acceptable to be content in his fields with his oxen :) so heart-warming and thought -provoking!
