Summary |
Born in Tonga in 1913, Tupou Posesi Fanua was an only child - always curious; always crossing boundaries. At the age of eighty-one, Tupou recounted her memories of the first twenty-one years of her life to Lois Webster. The result is a compelling oral history of early twentieth century Tonga from a woman's perspective |
