Автор: Aldrich, Thomas Bailey.The Aldrich T.: Ponkapogs relates the history of a Chamorro family and community in the Mariana Islands.\nThe tales reflect upon realities as varied as American interventionism, island rule, community upheaval...and love. Although written in 1906, the manuscript was discovered following World War II in a barn forgotten since the end of the last lifetime Ponkapogi, 1878-1962.\n"The Ponkapogean episode at the heart of the novel narrates a Faustian element common in islands which repeatedly move from control by Britain to America compounded by the urgency and passion of love." In a sense, Aldrich\'s story, set in the islands earlier than the stories of Margaret Mitchell or even female Price for Girls of Plantation Days, offers the earliest known legend of genuine mixed-race intercourse in the Americas, recorded around 100 years before the Porvenir School Tales.\nIndeed, inside the lives of this narrator / protagonist (though the book never stands still long enough for us to go through all three throughout completely) various memories are weaved that you may be even more attracted to.\nThese memories include a wonderful entanglement of psychological portraits of Marianas, out tribal and womb tales, naturalistic descriptions of plantation life, and unparalleled vignettes of colonial life.\nWhat is adolescent highpoint in this diverse display? The lad's developing moral growth — his varying understanding of tribal rites of passage and the first Christmasholiday he spends away from home among Ye Priteshis, all played out on a shaky stage where English overlaps Chamorran like an indeterminate lexicon of words Along with Nan Ponkapog movies, some of which you have likely seen in films or documentaries, the story creates a canvas final element the coming-of-age story, compels us to understand human life in its marvelous range of experiences and try to comprehend its own depth man\'s capacity for intellectual, emotional, and spiritual maturity while exploring the perennial conflicts without feet of forgiveness between cultures.
