Title: an engrossing novel
Product review: This novel centers around the Campbell family, who travel to the island of Papua New Guinea in the 1970s. Although they seem to be going to for the husband's research it also seems like they're going just as much for the adventure. The novel has a lovely setting, the rain forest feels paplpable as does the odd, alienated feeling the Campbells have. This book brought to my mind At Play In the Fields of the Lord and for some reason, Patricia Cornwell (I guess for the medical details) 's books, too. The story is a tragedy but it's so well told that you want to re-read it when you're done!
