Title : Night begins at Cape Horn - Saint-Loup - Book
Summary :
Risking his life, a Scottish pastor sets sail alone in Patagonia to convert the Indians of Tierra del Fuego. But courage and self-denial are not always enough: beyond the wind, the cold, and the solitude, there are obstacles and laws—human, natural, cosmic—that lead to tragedy.
The Onas, Yaghans, and Alakaloufs, still proud at the beginning of the 19th century, did not see the southern sun rise at the dawn of the following century. The word of the Gospel had been offered to them...
With Night Begins at Cape Horn , Saint-Loup delivers a powerful reflection on universalism and colonization. But this epic novel not only describes the agony of the Fuegian tribes, victims of progress: it also raises the question of good, evil, and the meaning of sacrifice.
