After a hell-raising youth, Cupido converts to Christianity and becomes the first "Hottentot", or Khoi, missionary ordained in the Cape region. The passionate new recruit is sent to proselytize in a remote area - where the church cruelly forgets him, plunging him into near-fatal hardship. As in more than a dozen other novels, including A Dry White Season (the 1989 movie version won Marlon Brando an Oscar nod), Brink rails...
