Boston: Houghton Mifflin, (1956) dj. Hardcover first edition - Novel by this South African writer set in the heart of the Congo, centered on three people: Henry is a sadistic bully and manager of a cattle ranch; Helen, his English wife now adrift and Henry's assistant Jim. In his introduction, Cloete describes this the struggle of one man against the forces of good and evil - and he makes a comment that is being echoed almost 70 years later of "a world in which men ... fear to reproduce themselves, so great is the danger and insecurity in which we live." xiii, 232 pp. Dust jacket by Walter Lorraine.
