In "Cry, The Beloved Country," Kumalo feels as though he hears terrible news like a man who was not warned of an oncoming storm. Jarvis hears terrible news out of a cloudless sky. Think of another character from a different story this semester who hears news or experiences a terrible situation with no warning. Explain how this metaphor (of the oncoming storm or cloudless sky) relates to the character's situation and compare the character's reaction to that of Kumalo and Jarvis. luoa
