Summary

880-03, Fanatichnyy missioner Natan Prays vmeste s zhenoy i docher'mi pokidayet blagopoluchnuyu tsivilizovannuyu Ameriku i otpravlyayetsya na chernyy kontinent, v dzhungli Bel'giyskogo Kongo, s tverdoy veroy v Boga i s nadezhdoy na to, chto Gospod' pomozhet yemu obratit' mestnykh zhiteley v khristianstvo. On propoveduyet yarostno i strastno, no mestnyye zhiteli vovse ne zhazhdut prinyat' blagodatnyye dary. Oni trepetno beregut svoi svyatyni, chtut traditsii predkov i prodolzhayut sovershat' svoi dikiye, poroy beschelovechnyye, obryady. No i v sobstvennoy sem'ye Natana Praysa nazrevayet bunt: domochadtsy okazalis' ne gotovy k tyagotam byta glukhoy afrikanskoy derevni. Vse kazhetsya im chuzhdym i pugayushchim - zloveshchiye mrachnyye dzhungli, gde na kazhdom shagu podsteregayet smert'; lyudi, vstrechayushchiye ikh ugryumym molchaniyem, i dazhe sam Natan Prays s yego fanatichnoy, ne znayushchey zhalosti veroy..
