The plot of this book is that a Zulu Pastor goes out and tries to find his son. The pastor’s son lives in the huge village of Johannesburg. When he got to Johannesburg the pastor has found out that his son and two of his son’s friends were involved in a murder. So the pastor goes on a journey to find where his son is in Johannesburg. In all of the places he has been the people he has spoken to knew his son very well, and they gave his father good reports on his son. So the father finds his son in a prison and the, and goes to his son’s trial. The judge says that the pastor’s son is to be hanged until dead. Also the father prays to God to deliver them from the drought that Africa is going through.
It was hard for me to like this book because some parts of the book were unfair. In this book the black people were treated badly by the white people. The whites treated the blacks very poorly even though the whites had been there for a long time. The whites had the restrooms, restaurants, and all public places separated between them and the blacks.
Even though I did not like this book it doesn’t mean it’s not a good book. This book is very good for teaching the person that is reading the book a good idea of what happened in South Africa back in the 1940’s. This is a classical book because the author

gets the reader emotionally involved in the book. The author’s goal was to make . . . read more.
