## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Wonderful Reading
  

*by S***H on Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2009*

A wonderfully written piece of work, embedded with numerous memories of Fiji and concise chronological description of the post-coup happenings.Kava will remain in the blood of many who fled Fiji, in 1987, after the dissolution of democracy. They will forever preserve the memories and the warm, fuzzy feelings of the country of their birth.The style of writing of this book is almost unique, in the sense that it alternates between the harsh sadness of the political disruption and the beauty of Fijian life style, which gives the reader a break and an opportunity to rendezvous the islands of Fiji. Peter Thomson served as a dedicated civil servant, while in Fiji, and this book is an added contribution to his dedication to this nation.
