I guess I missed this book in high-school. I watched the movie and was flummoxed by the ending but the book cleared it up. A very good book, lyrical writing, highly recommend. ( ![]() This is an excellent book. Beautiful. A piece of poetry, and mercy, and secrets, and wonderment. David Powlison recommends this book as one that all pastors should read. It began slowly, but picked up the pace and pulled me in as the plot began to develop. Life is messy and demands responses that sometimes test the character and fortitude of a man. Sorrows and affliction abound in the life of the protagonist, a Zulu priest living during the time period that prefigured apartheid South Africa. Native crime and the breakdown of the land and tribal system are a pair of major themes. No wonder this is one of Tun Dr Mahathir’s favourite book! It’s written beautifully with much thought and feels into it! So relatable and I can understand the anguish parent’s thoughts.

Paton's deeply moving story of Zulu pastor Stephen Kumalo and his son Absalom, set against the backdrop of a land and people riven by racial inequality and injustice, remains the most famous and important novel in South Africa's history. Published to coincide with the Miramax film release in December, starring James Earl Jones and Richard Harris. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
