Hardcover. Etat : Good. 176 pages. pp175 d/jFrom Publishers Weekly These 12 short stories set in Samoa seem at first li ke fables of a simpler life, yet taken together they prove to be thought-provoki ng modernistic parables. The title narrative probes one villager's existential d ilemma: Fiasola Ta'ase, a schoolteacher, feels that his life has lost meaning un til he slays the miracle man growing inside him. In Prospecting, the search for gold leads to a burial ground and, oddly, to a new kind of richness and fert ility. Several of these tales are entertaining character studies which easily cr oss cultural lines, as in A Talent, about a man whose only skill is thievery. Wendt (Leaves of the Banyan Tree moves easily among his characters, evoking a yo ung girl's curiosity and intellectual acuity as vividly as an older man's feelin gs upon the death of his father. And in all of them, the reader unfamiliar with Polynesian customs will be able to appreciate the beauty of the land, its people , and its collective spirit.
