a major motif in the novel is the multitude of refrences to the beauty of the south African countryside. identify a passage from the chapter that demonstrates that the beauty of the land helps to comfort kumaloin his time of distress?
Which chapter are you referring to?
oh sorry chapter 13
cry the beloved country
Could you quote me a line from the chapter? I don't have the book but perhaps I can find it with a quote.
cry the beloved country
This is actually from chapter 4, not chapter 13. The line goes, "There is a lovely road that runs from Ixopo into the hills. These hills are grass-covered and rolling, and they are lovely beyond any singing of it." He is really just describing the wonder of the hills above one of the " fairest valleys of Africa." Paton writes about how the beauty is beyond description, beyond even a song or poetry can describe.
oh thanks : )
