Kathy Giuffre wants to escape from her stressful life working full-time and raising two young children on her own. When a new boyfriend agrees to join her for a year in Rarotonga with her young sons, she takes a sabbatical from work, books their flights and packs their bags. Then at the last minute her boyfriend announces he isn't coming.
"Brimming with sensuality and intelligence, Kathy Giuffre's quest for freedom in the Pacific has a disarming honesty and a delightful turn of phrase. Woven into her intimate story is a love letter to the people of Rarotonga, rich with all the joys and sorrows of a lost paradise." -- Kapka Kassabova, author, "Street Without a Name"
Kathy Giuffre has a BA from Harvard and a PhD from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She is a professor of sociology at Colorado College and author of Collective Creativity: Art and Society in the South Pacific.
