description: The actual correspondence of a Yankee mother and her free-spirited daughter, who is pregnant and living an unconventional life in a beautiful spot in New Zealand. The book covers the daughter's travels in the South Pacific, her love for a man of Polynesian descent, her pregnancy, and the dramatic birth of her baby. Although mother and daughter have vastly different lifestyles and opinions on many important issues (marriage, home birth, etc.), they share strong bonds of love and respect. "A fascinating look at the mother-daughter relationship." Sandra Martz, editor, When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple. "A gift to all who seek a better understanding of families. . . . a rare and memorable treat." (Professor Hope Jensen Leichter, Columbia University).
