Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: New. "A Pattern of Islands" is the funny, charming and self-deprecating adventure story of a young man in the Pacific. Living for thirty years in the Gilbert and Ellis Islands, Grimble was ultimately initiated but not before he was severely tested, as when he was used as human bait for a giant octopus. Beyond the hilarious and frightening adventure stories, "A Pattern of Islands" is also a true testament to the life of these Pacific islanders. Grimble collected stories from the last generation who could remember the full glory of the old pagan ways. This is anthropology with its hair down. Like discovering a treasure chest of fables, which were once true, it is full of stories of magic, dances and legends, rituals, spells and a way of life that have now disappeared from this worldexcept within the covers of this book.

First published in 1952, stranger and funnier than fiction, this is the true story of an Englishman in the Pacific Islands. As an administrator in the Gilbert and Ellice Islands, Arthur Grimble lived among fishermen, sorcerers, fighters and poets - fascinating and lovable islanders who claimed descent from the Pandanus tree of the lord. Describing their dances and legends, spells, rituals and ways of life, recounting his adoption into the Sun clan, and an encounter with black magic, Arthur Grimble has given us a popular classic - a warm, humorous autobiography, a weird and wonderful adventure story. **Bundle Up * Save On Postage**.
