'Cupid in Africa' is an adventure novel written by Percival Christopher Wren. The story begins by introducing us to a man named Major Hugh Walsingham Greene, who is described as being a very honorable, upright and scrupulous gentleman, but also very dull, narrow-minded, pompous, and irascible. The Great War broke out and gave him something new to do and think about, but it also made him very unhappy. He had a luckless and unfortunate life with his two wives and one son, his good intentions but poor achievements, his kind heart but harsh exterior, and his narrow escapes of recognition and promotion. He was not lucky at cards or in love, and his son was a disappointment to him, being a poet, artist, musician and intellectual, and the first in the family to grow up as a civilian. He only saw his son on rare occasions, and tried to hide his disappointment from him and his distaste for his pale and slim beauty, which reminded him too much of his mother.
