A brilliant novel revealing the challenges of life in Fiji holiday magazines won't tell you about.
If you like to be fully immersed in a culture you know little about while being swept away in a terrific story, this is the book for you.
Sugar is an ethnographic novel, impeccably researched and keenly observed by people who have enormous experience with the subject matter – Fiji.
The story is set over 27 days in Suva as a dangerous tropical cyclone threatens the island. Tension builds with the storm as we follow three people from different cultural backgrounds and see, through their eyes, the structural inequities that plague Fijian life and the corporate interests that profit from them.
Murder, political intrigue, corruption, and a love story keep you turning the pages sleeplessly until the end.
