About This Item
Christchurch, NZ: Whitcoulls Publishers. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1984. First Edition. Hardcover. 0723307350 . Many photos. The New Zealand poet relates how he was reunited with his Cook Islands extended family forty years after having been sent to a New Zealand orphanage in the 1930s as a young boy when his parents both died. "The voyage he describes is one of discovery and recollection, and his evocation of life in the Islands is interwoven with the exploration of a past from which he had long been separated. There are old ghosts to be confronted too in this intriguing tale of paradise lost." (front jacket flap) ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 120 pages .
