Village in the Jungle

著者: Leonard Woolf
無料で聴く

In Village in the Jungle, Woolf draws from his experiences as a government agent in British imperialist-controlled Ceylon in the early twentieth century. The novel centers on a struggling family in a jungle village, navigating the harsh realities of their environment and confronting deep-seated human prejudices, superstitions, jealousy, violence, ignorance, and greed. As they endure these personal battles, they are also up against an indifferent foreign government that fails to understand or care for the lives of those it deems uncivilized. This poignant work offers a sympathetic perspective from the native point of view, making it a significant literary contribution. JLCopyright Family and Culture 世界 社会科学 科学
