- Summary:
- They Shall Inherit the Earth is Morley Callaghan's penetrating study of a father and son caught in the moral and economic undertow of the Great Depression. The action of the novel hinges upon a sudden mischance in which accident and intention tragically coincide. Swept along by the inexorable logic of events, Callaghan's protagonists are forced to re-examine the nature of individual conscience and responsibility. In their personal struggle is expressed the mood of the age - its cynicism and anger, its desperate idealism, and its agonized longing for redemption.
