Paperback. Albert Wendt crosses into new and deeply personal territory in this stirring BWB Text. Returning to his boyhood in the Vaipe, a suburb of Apia in Samoa, sees Wendt confront elemental questions: Is the Vaipe he has created in his stories, poetry and novels really the Vaipe that existed and exists in real life? Or is it real only in his books? Is there a difference between the two? And does it matter? The responses form a vivid narrative that draws on a life of award-winning writing, and returns full circle to the symbolic world of the Deadwater. For many years the Pacific's leading novelist, poet and academic, Albert Wendt ventures into fascinating and deeply personal new territory. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
