Journal #11

    I have noticed the similarities between the land and the Kumalo family. Their descriptions in the novel are parallel. From the very first page, the beautiful, peaceful, serene setting is painted so passionately. And the Kumalo family is happy and calm as well. As Kumalo's family goes through the pain and the sorrow of their son's trail and death, the land changes also. The setting becomes dark and is described very fearful. Intense storms with lightning and thunder and rain that pound the earth's floor, shows the feelings that the Kumalo family goes through.
