Welcome, Gentle Friends, to the Extra Juicy Electronic Unit on
Cry, the Beloved Country.

More than anything else we have read so far, this novel is relevant to our political past and our future--for it addresses the question of how peoples of different races may live in harmony with each other. It also begs the question of whether humanity can live in harmony with nature: the populationn explosion and its concurrent urbanization carry high ecological price tags.
