The Native Born is a novel written by I. A. R. Wylie. The story is set in the early 1900s and follows the life of a young woman named Diana Mayo. Diana is the daughter of a wealthy American businessman and is living a life of luxury in Europe. However, she becomes disillusioned with her superficial existence and decides to travel to Africa to find a deeper purpose in life.In Africa, Diana meets a man named Ulysses, who is a native African. Despite their cultural differences, Diana and Ulysses fall in love and begin a relationship. However, their relationship is met with disapproval from both their communities.The novel explores themes of race, class, and identity. It also delves into the complexities of colonialism and the impact it has on both the colonizers and the colonized.Overall, The Native Born is a thought-provoking novel that challenges readers to question their own beliefs and prejudices. It is a timeless story that continues to resonate with readers today.It was the first time that they were alone together since the eventful evening at the club, and in the intervening week enough had happened to give them food for intercourse. By mutual consent, the accident of the chandelier was not touched upon. Nehal Singh, though promising to investigate the matter thoroughly, had shown a distress out of proportion to his responsibility, and it was understood that for some reason or another, the subject was painful to him. On the other hand, he had shown a lively and warm-hearted interest in Lois' recovery. She had sustained little more than a severe shock, and he had been constant in his attentions, as though striving to atone for an injury he had unwittingly done her. The accident had also served to deepen his interest in Adam Nicholson.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
