Description: Fine in near fine dust jacket with light rubbing and wear. Rare and desirable in the year of publication. Scribner's colophon. The most famous and important novel in South Africa's history, and an immediate worldwide best seller when it was published in 1948, Alan Paton's impassioned novel about a black man's country under white man's law is a work of searing beauty. The eminent literary critic Lewis Gannett wrote, "We have had many novels from statesman and reformers, almost all bad, many novels from poets, almost all thin. In Alan Paton's Cry, The Beloved Country, the statesman, the poet and the novelist meet in a unique harmony." (The New Republic). bigskyrarities on eBay
