Sinopsis

Vanuatu es un país formado por 83 islas en el Pacífico Sur, situadas entre Australia y Fiji. Su historia es milenaria y es de los pocos lugares del mundo que ha preservado tradiciones pasadas de generación en generación por miles de años. En este libro la autora nos describe no sólo sus experiencias y la gente que conoció durante los cuatro años que vivió en Vanuatu, sino que escribe acerca de una cultura y unas tradiciones que persisten desde hace más de tres mil años. Volcanes activos, saltos con lianas de orígen milenario que preceden al salto bunji, danzas y rituales de otra época, supersticiones y magia, canibalismo... El libro nos transporta a una época de hace muchísimos años a través de historias recientes y nos acerca a la esencia del alma melanesia, tan actual como eterna. El significado de Vanuatu es 'Nuestra tierra eterna' y los ni-Vanuatu se consideran meros guardianes de la tierra que deben pasar intacta a las generaciones venideras.
