Country Lovers Essay
A written report of forbidden cut on a South African farm, one child nothing more(prenominal) than a farm worker, as the other one prepares for boarding school. devil ignorant to the color of their skins, all they knew they were best friends playacting together until they grew up and then it was not allowed. But when Paulus turns fifteen and goes to school things start to variety he begins to realize the difference between boys and girls, and then the consequences behind his actions, yet then its too late to turn back.What drew me into this myth was the title country lovers, and then the forbidden love on a South African farm I wanted to see what it was about, curios to jazz if it was about two the great unwashed of different races falling in love, creating racial relationships in a place that forbid it. And that was exactly what it was, two kids playing together as kids, a boy white and girl black, terrene playing on his fathers farm.What I couldnt infer was why they were able to play as kids and not be able to socialize when they got older. If it was because of racial boundaries, why not keep them isolated even when they are kids, then it wouldnt be so conf utilise. The literary term and concept that best describes they way I am odor about this would be Imagination because it expresses how the author was intuitive feelinging about racial differences and allows the reader to feel what the author is writing about.I am using the Reader Response approach to analyze my story because it asks you to connect with the literature, and muster a personal link or imaginative entry into a story. And that is what this author makes you do. While reading this story I had a trade of different emotions like why did he change when he went to school, but when he came home he was with thebedi. Even though he met people at school whose familys was prosperous famers? He facilitate was bringing gifts to thebedi, she making gifts for him and both lying about where t hey came from and why.They had been sneaking about for months, so when she was eighteen and the farmers son was nineteen he left for veterinary college, Njabulos parents asked Thebedis parents to marry their son and they concord on it, not telling Paulus or Njabulo that she might be pregnant. When the infant was born looked nothing like Njabulo, but he still was expiry to take rush of her as if she was his own. This would be Satire because he should feel anger but instead he is willing to take care of her.My thinking didnt change because in that time thats what happens when two different races mix and have children, I just thank perfection its not like that now to the extreme it was then. Because I love people for who they are not because of where they come from. Because of the authors understate growing up in South Africa I can pull in why she feels this way, they have different traditions and beliefs. This was a very good story I enjoyed reading it and feeling what they we re going through.
