The Daughter of the Pangaran

Rate this book
A bewitchingly lively Polynesian girl who has cast her spell over the raffish alexander Hare and the lure of the South Sea Islands combine to make The Daughter of the Pangaran an absorbing novel. A fresh and lusty tale that is reminiscent at times of the best Nordhoff and Hall and of Garland Roark, this South Seas romance is graced with a style and storytelling appeal of its own. Palm trees, coral beaches and violent storms at sea forms the background for the dramatic struggle of one woman against one man. (from inside cover flap)

Let me start by saying I really expected this book to be some kind of raunchy stereotypical novel about some exotic prepubescent child and her obsessive captor (think Polynesian Lolita). In actuality it’s the story of a strong and independent young woman fighting against those that wish to hold her down. Overall I liked it and it was an interesting read. The ending was a bit boring/ didn’t tie up all the loose ends but in general I liked this book.

I am not sure exactly how to explain what I just read. I know that it is based on real people, and Alexander Hare sounds like a real piece of work, and he was portrayed that way in the book. I was encouraged that a girl/woman like the main character stood up to this creep and refused to become part of his harem. If you are looking for the process on how to shrink a head, look no further; it is contained in this novel. See? This one is hard to explain...
