First Edition. 8vo, publisher's original sepia coloured cloth, the spine lettered in yellow, in the pictorially decorated dustjacket. 256 pp. A handsome and very well preserved copy with minimal mellowing to the cloth and only a touch of shelf wear to the lower tips of the jacket. THE AUTHOR'S FIRST NOVEL. A FIRST EDITION OF THIS HIGH TENSION STORY FROM ONE OF THE FINEST WRITERS OF THE AGE. 'Not merely the story of a sort of South African Madame Bovary, it is the story of South Africa herself, a merciless study of the relations betwee the white and coloured peoples.' As a first novel it promised an exceptional talent.
