$18.00 CAD

pp. 274, “When life as a harbourmaster in a Hawaiian out island began to seem too civilized, fifty-four-year-old Joana McIntyre uprooted herself to Fiji, in search of adventure and a new life. Changes in Latitude follows Joana as she struggles to make real a long-aspired-to personal mythology based upon the integration of nature and a life well-lived. It documents the lush life of the torrid zone; an uncommon anthropology of the flora, fauna, rituals, passions, and day-to-day lives of the Fijian people, and of a feisty American woman who adopts it all, and shares it with us.”
