A novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Cyprianus Méré, a young French engineer and scientist, who has come to South Africa on a mission of geological research pertaining to diamonds. His aspirations, however, hit a snag when he presents a marriage proposal to Alice Watkins, only to face the resistance of her father, Mr. Watkins, who has other plans for his daughter. The opening of the novel introduces the main character, Cyprianus Méré, as he earnestly asks Mr. Watkins for the hand of his daughter Alice. As they engage in conversation, the clash between Méré's scientific ambitions and Watkins' rigid social expectations becomes evident. Mr. Watkins' dismissive reaction to the proposal reveals not only his protective nature but also the socio-economic divides that complicate relationships in this setting. The scene is further enriched by the introduction of Alice, who brings a touch of levity with her playful conversation about her pet ostrich, providing a glimpse into her character and her relationship with Méré as they interact against the rough backdrop of diamond mining in Grikwaland.
