【Rare - French Edition】Cry, the Beloved Country (Alan Paton)
Product Details
This is a French paperback translation of Alan Paton's masterpiece, Cry, the Beloved Country (Japanese title: Aratanaki Meiro).
This vintage book from the long-established French label Le Livre de Poche has a unique cover illustration and color scheme that gives it a distinct texture.
● Title: Pleure, ô pays bien-aimé
● Author: Alan Paton
● Language: French
● Publisher: Le Livre de Poche
The sublime character of the book (yes, I do not hesitate to use this intimidating adjective) is linked to the nakedness of the narrative, to the absolute simplicity of the dialogues... This is what I would dare to call an exemplary book, where any complacency whatsoever is absent.
