Powerful Story of Endurance and Hope
This is one of the most powerful stories I have ever come across. The characters will stay with me for a long time. Cry, the Beloved Country reveals many complex facets of complex issues and humanity's struggle to endure in a world of strife. Yet it offers hope. That is no small achievement.

A story of compassion and human respect
A beautifully written story about how two fathers lives are brought together by a tragedy. There is humanity and a great compassion throughout their story. Never has the English language been written with such gentility and elegance.

A true classic as powerful as the day it was written
This is an amazing book, and well deserves to be a classic. It moved me on all levels, emotional and intellectual. It is as powerful today as the day that it was written. I read this in preparation for a trip to South Africa. Now, I need to read more about this country's more recent history.

A wonderfully written book
I first read this book about 60 years ago , and it moved me then and now. The language is so lyrical and descriptions of the landscape as well as the city resonate with me. Recommended
