Review

A nuanced and sensitive long conversation with the people of Papua New Guinea. . . [Allen] is a sensitive observer . . . [he] has an ear for dialogue and the inconsequential, and a gift for bringing alive the characters he meets - * The Times *

A remarkable journey unfolds . . . [Allen] writes clean, honest prose, creating startling images of all he sees . . . an extraordinary story, painfully assembled and beautifully told - * Spectator *

A love song to the Yaifo and all peoples struggling to maintain dignity and culture in a world gone wrong - * Daily Telegraph *

Honest, sensitive and gives a brilliant look at a world most of us just dream about - * Our Man On The Ground Travel *

Brilliant. Reads like a thriller -- MARCUS du SAUTOY
