Kurzfassung:
"New writing from Vanuatu by three generations of women - and the first of its kind. With poetry, fiction, essay, memoir and song, its narrative arc stretches from the days of blackbirding to Independence in 1980 to Vanuatu's coming of age in 2020 ... The writers in this anthology have chosen to harness the coloniser's language, English, for their own purposes. They are writing against racism, colonialism, misogyny and sexism. Writing across bloodlines and linguistic boundaries. Professing their love for ancestors, offspring and language - Bislama, vernacular and English"--Back cover
Anmerkung:
Chiefly in English with some Bislama, and one song in each of two local dialects; all works have English versions
