SYNOPSIS, BLURB...: Kett emigrated to South Africa in 1882 to join the teaching staff at St. Andrew's College in Grahamstown. With The divine tragedy (1905), Kett produced a verse drama about the Last Supper and Crucifixion. A pleasing and entertaining read. Not a rare title but this copy is far better than the average.
