Lost In The Stars (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781258236359)

Lost in the Stars is a novel written by Maxwell Anderson. The book tells the story of a black South African man named Stephen Kumalo who travels to Johannesburg in search of his son, Absalom, who has been accused of murdering a white man. The novel explores themes of race, injustice, and forgiveness as Kumalo navigates the complexities of the apartheid system and the harsh realities of life in the city. Along the way, he meets a white liberal activist named James Jarvis, whose own son was killed by Absalom in the course of the crime. Through their interactions, the novel examines the ways in which people from different backgrounds can come together to find common ground and heal the wounds of the past. Ultimately, Lost in the Stars is a powerful and moving exploration of the human spirit and the enduring power of hope and love.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
