Description
The Impenitent Prayer Amy J. Baker Vintage Hardback Book South Africa Fiction With great effect, taken South Africa as the background of this her new book, wherein we are once more face to face with the magical charm of the sub-continent. The key-note of the novel may be found in the following quotation from the text: "When a man offers South Africa his youth, she demands the service of his man-hood." Lyn Baring, the heroine, is first wooed and then thrown aside by Stanley Fraser, the wealthy mine-owner. The effect of this upon her character is subtly traced by the author, who endows her men and women with all the joy and sorrow, goodness and badness which belong to ordinary human beings.
