Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Here is "Footprints : An Anthology of Modern South African Prose Authors", Including: Alan Paton, Olive Schreiner, Laurens van der Post, Nadine Gordimer, et al. This hardcover book was issued in South Africa by APB Publishers and Booksellers in 1956 . Of note in this inter…esting anthology of South African prose is the inclusion without fanfare of a passage from the internationally heralded novel by Alan Paton, "Cry the Beloved Country", published in 1948. The date of "Footprints" publication,1956, was just three years after Paton founded the South African Liberal Party which was instrumental in opposing South Africa's horrible apartheid policies. The other selections in this book are equally illuminating, painting a word picture of what was, at that time, an extremely troubled land. Only some of the selection have political import; there are also essays celebrating the natural beauties and wildlife of South Africa, as well as the cultural richness that thrives there. Taken as a whole, the selections in this book paint a colorful, complex and fascinating picture of mid Twentieth- century South Africa.

The trilogy follows the lives of the family patriarch Ahmad 'Abd al-Jawad and his family across three generations, in Cairo, Egypt, from 1919, the year of Egyptian Revolution against the British rule in Egypt, to almost the end of the Second World War in 1944. The three novels' Arabic titles are taken from the names of actual streets in Cairo, where major characters in the novels live. The three novels represent three eras of socio-political life, from religious conservative to Marxist radicalism. Palace Walk was first published in Arabic ( Bayn al-Qasrayn) in 1956; Palace of Desire ( Qasr al-Shawq), in 1957; and Sugar Street (Al-Sukkariyya), in 1957. The English translations were first published by Doubleday in 1990, 1991, and 1992, respectively. Palace Walk was translated by William M. Hutchins and Olive Kenny; Palace of Desire by Hutchins, Olive Kenny and Lorne Kenny; and Sugar Street by Hutchins, Olive Kenny and Angele Botros Samaan. The translations were overseen by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, an editor at Doubleday at the time, and Martha Levin.
