- Annotation
- Focuses on the book s treatment of lost pastoral vision and failed redemption. Putnam discusses the sense of dividedness that marks the text at all levels, specifically the narrative s conflicting desires to revere the African landscape while at the same time to conquer and destroy it. Concludes that the sojourner turns hunter under the ceaseless pressure of time.
