Collier African /American Library. 157 pages. paperback. 5336. keywords: Literature Jamaica Caribbean Black. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Beneath its animism and naked emotion, this book speaks eloquently of the ways of men to one another.' - New York Herald Tribune Book Review . In Kenya at the time of the Mau Mau rebellion a black warrior, Nebu, sets out to track down and kill a white man, Bwana Gibson. Gibson's wife had been Nebu's mistress. When she admitted bearing a crippled half-breed son, her husband killed her and fled, half-mad, into the African jungle. In pursuing his master and oppressor, Nebu, with a mortal wound in his side, finds himself pursued - by the leopard, waiting to pounce at the first opportunity. From these elements of brutality and terror the author, with a blend of singing lyricism and earthy realism, has evoked a haunting vision of a man confronting evil at its dangerous level - in the depths of his own soul. VICTOR STAFFORD REID, a native of Jamaica, was a correspondent for the London Daily Express. For his first novel, New Day, he received the Musgrave Silver Medal as an outstanding Jamaican in the arts. inventory #7656.

hardcover. Condition: Very Good in Dustjacket. 1st edition. New York. 1958. Viking Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 159 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Roberta Moynihan. keywords: Literature Jamaica Caribbean Black. FROM THE PUBLISHER - This is a strange, magical tale of the haunted and the hunted - the story of a double chase: a black man's pursuit of a white man with whom he has been deeply involved and who is now quite mad, and a leopard's pursuit of the black man. Written by a West Indian, The Leopard evokes the mystery, the beauty, and the terror of the African jungle and its human and animal inhabitants. The story is told from the point of view of a Kikuyu of Kenya, so that it is totally unlike any other book dealing with the tangled relationships between the natives and the white settlers of that troubled land. What gives this exciting story its haunting quality is the spirit of primitive animism that informs it. Part of the magic of the book comes from the combination of almost lyric prose with the earthy and realistic presentation of its scenes and characters. Part of the magic remains undefinable. It is a book that totally captures the imagination, and no one can put it down without a feeling of sympathy and admiration for its tragic hero, an outlaw who could have been nothing save what he is. inventory #6271.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No DJ. 1st Edition. Decorated boards are faded/sunned/ rubbed especially on spine, shelf wear rubbed through on bottom edges and tail of spine, chipped edge on head of spine as well, page edges age toned but interior still possesses a strong presentation as do the board face plates. "First published in 1949, New Day has been read as an historical novel about Morant Bay and the early nationalist movement. Now, nearly 70 years later, what stands out is its acute portrayal of one man's way of seeing, from the intensity of childhood, to the comfortable self-satisfaction of middle age and old age's vicarious looking-on. At the heart of what is a more complex and conflicted narrative is a richly lyrical treatment of the human body and the network of its relations to the natural world, and a tragic awareness of how those connections fade as John Campbell moves from the peasant world of his childhood to manhood in the counting house, managing and profiting from capitalist agricultural production.".
