Description
Teha'amana's story has long been shrouded in silence. Now, for the first time, her voice is heard. This novel brings to life the Tahitian muse and child-bride of Paul Gauguin, weaving together his masterpieces with the myths and legends of the island. As Teha'amana shares her thoughts, other voices rise from the shadows: the Hina goddess of the moon, a lizard watching from the eaves, and the mask carved from one of the trees. The spirit of the dead keeps watch, as Teha'amana's story travels across history and time. Aline's diary entries, penned from afar, offer a glimpse into Gauguin's other life. This is a novel that gives Teha'amana a voice, one that asks to be heard in the present day.
