" L'auteur, fille d'un pasteur méthodiste allemand brutal et d'une mère anglaise, publie son premier roman à Londres en 1883, sous le pseudo Ralph Iron. Elle acquiert par la suite, une place prépondérante dans la littérature. Elle eût également une aura politique, lui permettant ainsi de prendre la défense des femmes battues, au côté de la fille de Karl Marx. Parallélement, elle manifeste une prédilection pour les rêves, les visions et les allégories, qui lui permit d'écrire ce magnifique ouvrage dont il reste peu d'exemplaires. Tirage à 1100 ex. Un des 1000 exemplaires numérotés sur velin. " Bien qu'exécuté en 1912 ce volume est une oeuvre symboliste ancré dans les années 1890, moment de la rédaction du texte.".

IRON, RALPH. [PSEUD. OLIVE SCHREINER].

The Story of an African Farm. A Novel.

London: Chapman and Hall, 1892. New Edition. Pp.296/8(ads for other publications), small bookseller's label(Widdison, Sheffield) to inside rear cover, owner's name to front free endpaper. Dark green cloth, gilt title to front and spine, slightly rubbed. G+.** "Olive Schreiner (24 March 1855 – 11 December 1920) was a South African author, anti-war campaigner and intellectual. She is best remembered today for her novel The Story of an African Farm which has been highly acclaimed since its first publication in 1883 for the bold manner in which it deals with some of the burning issues of the day, including agnosticism, existential independence, individualism, the professional aspirations of women, and the elemental nature of life on the colonial frontier. In more recent studies she has also been identified as an advocate for those sidelined by the forces of British Imperialism, such as the Afrikaners, and later other South African groups like Blacks, Jews and Indians – to name but a few. Although she showed interest in socialism, pacifism, vegetarianism and feminism amongst other things, her true views escape restrictive categorisations. Her published works and other surviving writings promote implicit values like moderation, friendship and understanding amongst all peoples and avoid the pitfalls of political radicalism which she consciously eschewed. Although she may be called a lifelong freethinker, she continued to adhere to the spirit of the Christian Bible and developed a secular version of the worldview of her missionary parents, with mystical elements."(wiki).

She was truly a symbolist of her time and saw herself as a European artist and a vagabond rather than a Swedish artist.
