Produktinformationen zu „The Island of Desire (ePub)“

Robert Dean Frisbie's 'The Island of Desire' is a vivid and introspective account of his life on the remote Polynesian island of Pukapuka. Frisbie's lyrical prose style immerses the reader in the lush landscapes and rich culture of the island, while also exploring themes of nature, isolation, and the longing for connection. Set against the backdrop of the early 20th century, the book offers a unique perspective on Pacific Island life and the impact of Western colonization. Robert Dean Frisbie, an American author and adventurer, draws from his own experiences living on Pukapuka to create a nuanced and heartfelt portrait of the island's inhabitants and traditions. His deep respect for the Polynesian way of life shines through in his writing, making 'The Island of Desire' a poignant and enlightening read. I highly recommend 'The Island of Desire' to readers interested in travel literature, cultural exploration, and the human experience. Frisbie's evocative storytelling and sincere portrayal of Pukapuka make this book a captivating and thought-provoking journey into a world unknown to many.

Autoren-Porträt von Robert Dean Frisbie

Robert Dean Frisbie (1896 - 1948) was an American writer whose evocative work provided a poignant glimpse into life in the South Pacific. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Frisbie traveled extensively before settling in the Cook Islands, where he immersed himself in island culture. His experiences in this remote part of the world served as a lush backdrop for his literary endeavors. His most well-known book, 'The Island of Desire,' captures the quintessence of the idyllic yet challenging life on a tropical island and reflects his deep appreciation for the Polynesian way of life. Frisbie's writing is often characterized by a blend of romance and realism, interweaving vivid descriptions of the landscape with the stark realities of living in isolation. Although not as widely recognized as some of his contemporaries, Frisbie's work offers valuable insights into the South Pacific's cultural and environmental milieu during the early 20th century. His storytelling reflects an era of exploration and adventure, and his literary contributions continue to resonate with readers seeking to escape to the remote and enchanting islands he so lovingly depicted.
