| Caroline Mytinger, a portrait painter and anthropology enthusiast, traveled among the Solomon Islands for two years just before WWII with her friend Margaret Warner, who could make music with anything. Their aim was to paint portraits of the different types of people inhabiting these islands. They left the United States with little equipment, less money, and no support, planning to pay their way as they went by painting portraits. This book is the story of that journey, a hilarious and often uncomfortable epic of infections, alligators, fevers, bad weather, restless models, and their obsession with eating shredded coconut. |
