The Exotic by Hampton Sides
Requirements: .ePUB, .PDF, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 7 MB
Overview: In The Exotic, Hampton Sides leads us on a grand adventure that is so strange and epic, it rivals the greatest tales of myth. Moving between a London high society newly infatuated with the Romantics and the perfumed archipelago of the Society Islands, Sides turns a riveting narrative into a cautionary tale about the heedless cruelty of colonialism and the collateral damage that can result from even the best-intentioned first contact.
—Peter Heller, bestselling author of The Dog Stars, The River, and The Guide
So much is made of “civilized” explorers heading out on grand adventures, but little is said of indigenes on their own journeys of exploration into the heart of whiteness. Sides gives us just that, in a meticulously researched story that is gripping, important, and inexplicably sad. A must-read.
