Deep below the flow of everyday life is a rhythm that knows innately how to celebrate being alive -- a giving of memory to all of the senses. You will see it in the color of carnival or in the white upon white at first communion. Listen and you will hear it in the familiar ring of the shoeshiner's bell as he passes in the street, and in the laughter of storytelling by candlelight at night. Photographer Carl Hiebert and writers Anthony Phelps, Sandy Noble Yates and Syto Cave present this Haiti, loved and calling to be remembered. Where Light Speaks is a rediscovery, not only of what is Haitian, but of what is human. $5.99 Hillman, Richard S.; D'Agostino, Thomas J.

BOOK COND: Used; Good. Book #or901593. (filed under: Islands ) * Mead, Margaret Growing up in New Guinea; A Revealing Study of a Primitive Culture New American Library 1953 mass market paperback. BOOK COND: Used; Good. Book #or901593. (filed under: Islands ) * stock image, actual book may vary Following the sensational success of her first book, Coming of Age in Samoa, Margaret Mead continued her brilliant work in Growing Up in New Guinea, detailing her study of the Manus, a New Guinea people still untouched by the outside world when she visited them in 1928. She lived in their noisy fishing village at a pivotal time -- after warfare had vanished but before missions and global commerce had begun to change their lives. She developed fascinating insights into their family lives, exploring their attitudes toward sex, marriage, the rearing of children, and the supernatural, which led her to see intriguing parallels with modern Western society. Reissued for the centennial of her birth and featuring introductions by Howard Gardner and Mead's daughter, Mary Catherine Bateson, this book offers important anthropological insights into human societies and vividly captures a vanished way of life. $12.00 Nakano, Ann Broken Canoe: Conversations And Observations in Micronesia 1984 hardcover.

JACKET COND: Used; Good. Book #or886662. ISBN #1582431655 / 9781582431659. (filed under: Islands ) * stock image, actual book may vary A story of extraordinary danger and adventure as a very young woman attempts, alone, a trip across Papua New Guinea. After her first taste of the freedom found in travel at age nineteen, Kira Salak spent the next several years of her youth as a constant, impulsive traveler. Barely old enough to drink, she leaves her life behind-graduate school, a job, a boyfriend who loves her-to attempt the impossible, her dream of following in the footsteps of British explorer Ivan Champion, the first person to successfully cross the island of Papua New Guinea in 1927. She is motivated by something much deeper than simply wanting to be the first woman to make such a crossing, and as she composes this memoir she still searches for answers. Why would a lone traveler, a very young woman at that, want to embark on such a dangerous and mysterious trip? Where was her fear? Or was this all an attempt to court and indulge her fear for some larger purpose? No one, on the road or at home, could quite understand. Kira Salak matches her adventures in these vivid landscapes with prose that is quite simply thrilling. More than a travel book or adventure story, Four Corners is a work of self-discovery in extreme, of being at great risk in places that are on the edge and being, most of the time, their equal. $5.50 Smith, Larry The Bahamas: Portrait of an Archipelago Interlink Publishing Group Inc 2004 hardcover.
