loganne12 's review for:
Cry, the Beloved Country
by Alan Paton
Cry, the Beloved Country is a profound example of finding hope in the midst of cultural, familial, and religious crises.
In a book that feels like it should follow every standard for tragedy known, Patton seems to do the opposite time and time again. Every time the main character Stephen Kumalo is knocked down, there is a profound moment of clarity, peace and hope.
This book tackles racial, economic, and cultural issues through beautiful story telling, and fascinating prose.
