The Story of an African Farm by Ralph Iron Olive Schreiner

Ralph Iron Olive's historical fiction, The Story of an African Farm, is a classic story of rural life in the 19th century in South Africa. The story revolves around Schreiner's childhood and his growing memories hidden in the South African veld. Its lead character, Lyndall, lives on an ostrich farm, and her decisions were forced by the strict protocols of Boer's life. In her struggle to achieve the freedom to settle down based on her own choices, rejecting marriage but choosing to have a kid, she dies in childbirth. Her internal journey has resembled that of her admirer Waldo, who longs for spiritual and intellectual liberty.
