When I requested this book I was thinking about Chatwin's The Songlines.
There's just some tenous link between the two books but I can say that this one, even less poetic, is a fantastic read that will make you travel in Papua New Guinea and discover new places, traditions and people.
I read it like a novel and found it engrossing and very interesting.
I look forward to reading other books by this author, highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Edelweiss for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
