本书是南非历史上最著名且最重要的小说，1948年出版时便立刻成为全球畅销书。Alan Paton这部关于白人法律统治下的黑人国度的饱含激情的小说，是一部具有灼人之美的杰作。著名文学评论家Lewis Gannett曾写道：“我们见过许多出自政治家和改革者之手的小说，几乎都很拙劣；也见过许多出自诗人之手的小说，几乎都很单薄。在Alan Paton的Cry, the Beloved Country中，政治家、诗人和小说家达到了一种独特的和谐。”Cry, the Beloved Country深情讲述了一位祖鲁族牧

艾伦·佩顿的《哭泣的大地》（Cry The Beloved Country）。每当我感到自己缺乏同理心时，这本书都能帮我找回理智，并彻底颠覆我看待世界的视角——毫不夸张地说，每次都管用。
Cry The Beloved Country by Alan Paton. Whenever I feel short of compassion, this books helps me gain some senses and completely change the way I look at the world - literally everytime.
我不敢说每本小说都是这样。《局外人》（The Outsiders）是我上学时读着觉得很无聊的一本书，现在我依旧觉得无聊。反过来，《哭泣的大地》（Cry, the Beloved Country）在高中时对我来说完全晦涩难懂，但现在它是我最喜欢的作品之一。
I will not say it's true for every novel. The Outsiders was a book that bored me in school, and I still find it boring. Cry, the Beloved Country on the other hand was completely over my head in high school, but it is one of my favorites now.
…模仿《守望者》图画小说里曼哈顿博士的叙事风格，却没意识到那种叙事之所以适合他是因为他是一个超脱于时间之外的存在，而他们这么做只会显得很蠢。[1] 《哭泣的大地》（Cry, The Beloved Country），这是我人生迄今读过最有感染力的书之一，地位堪比《1984》及类似作品。那些玩弄道德姿态（virtue signal）的人（你们心里有数）真该读读这本；那是切实的苦难，是人类的悲痛…
…copying the narrative quality of Doctor Manhatten from the Watchmen novel, not realising that it worked for him because he was a being who lived outside of time, but it just makes them look stupid. [1] "Cry, The Beloved Country", which is one of the more powerful books I've read in my life thus far, next to 1984 and similar. People who virtue signal (you know who you are) should read this; the struggle was real, human grief…
对我来说要么是《哭泣的大地》（Cry, the Beloved Country），要么是《五号屠场》（Slaughterhouse-Five）。更新：噢等等，可能也得算上《恋情的终结》（The End of the Affair），或者《我曾爱过》（Je l'aimais）。
For me it's either "Cry, the Beloved Country" or "Slaughterhouse-Five". EDIT: Oh wait, or maybe it's "The End of the Affair", or "Je l'aimais".
…“经典”文学往往理解门槛极高，而且很多地方高度依赖共同的历史/文化背景。翻译并不总能真正传神。拿英语作品来说，比如艾伦·佩顿的《哭泣的大地》（Cry, the Beloved Country）。我不知道该怎么形容，但那本小说自有一种“韵律”。到底要怎样才能把它翻译成日语而不丢掉那种味道？我之所以想学日语，部分原因就是…
…"Classic" literature often has a very high comprehension level and often relies on a shared history/culture for many things. Translation doesn't always really work. In English, for example, let's take "Cry, the Beloved Country" by Alan Paton. I don't know how to describe it, but that novel has a "rhythm". How on Earth would you translate that to Japanese and not lose that? Part of the reason I wanted to learn Japanese is…
