Getting Stoned With Savages by J. Maarten Troost
A Trip Through the Islands of Fiji and Vanuatu
An irreverent travel memoir about a restless couple who trade Washington, D.C., for the South Pacific, settling in Vanuatu and later Fiji, where they navigate cyclones, an active volcano, relentless bureaucracy, and a steady diet of kava. Through close calls with nature and the quirks of expatriate life, the narrator pairs self-deprecating humor with sharp observations on island culture, colonial legacies, and resilience, capturing both the charms and frustrations of living at the far edge of the map.
