Bought this book in Amsterdam. Unfortunately I didn't notice that this is the second part of the story, so I had to buy the first book first, also in Dutch. So by now I read both of them.
In my opinion the first one was way better and more interesting... but that might be due to my purposive desinterest in politics, which was the topic of half the book. I found those parts quite boring, although knowing quite well that this is a very delicate subject.

I don't think I will read Sa More...

Needless to say I can easily identify with a fellow missionary kid brought up on the other side of the world. In this book she returns to West Papua after many years in Germany. The books is somewhat political and not quite as fascinating as the first one. Intensely personal, well worth reading.

Even while the author claims to have missed going "home" to the jungle every day, she only does it after 15 years, a lot of sold books and political problems arise in Indonesia.
She does not sound concerned enough but seems to think "Political Problems = New book = More money"

as the first book, also this one is written easy and with passion. not just about Sabine but also about the people in West Papua. Unbeliavable what happened there Everyone should read it, to know more about what happens in the world that we think is just a paradise on earth.

Another fascinating true story - as Sabine returns to the jungle of her childhood and the people she had to leave behind. These books are SO FASCINATING and educational at the same time. Phenomenal.
