Description
Dirt Poor Islanders by Winnie Dunn is a powerful and moving novel that explores the complexities of growing up between two cultures. For Meadow Reed, a young girl caught between her Tongan and White heritage, finding her place in the world means navigating the constraints of tradition, family, and self. As she pushes against these boundaries, Meadow discovers a sense of identity that is both fierce and tender. This is a story about the beauty of being different, and the importance of understanding all the many pieces of yourself. With vivid language and vibrant characters, Winnie Dunn's debut novel opens our eyes to the brutal fractures navigated when growing up between two worlds. A fresh and vital new voice, Dirt Poor Islanders is a potent and mesmerising read that will stay with you long after you finish the book.
