The Dark River (1920) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781437317930)

The Dark River is a novel written by Sarah Gertrude Millin and published in 1920. The story is set in South Africa during the early 20th century and follows the life of a young woman named Miriam, who is of Jewish descent. Miriam is a talented pianist who becomes entangled in a love triangle with two men, one of whom is her cousin. The novel explores themes of identity, race, and colonialism, as Miriam grapples with her Jewish heritage and her place in South African society. The title of the book refers to the metaphorical ""dark river"" that Miriam must navigate in order to find her true self and her place in the world. The Dark River is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the complexities of identity and belonging in a colonial society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
