Book review - Sado by Mikaela Nyman

Melanie O'Loughlin of Unity Books reviews Sado by Mikaela Nyman, published by Victoria University Press. Cathryn, a New Zealand NGO worker in Port Vila, sets about picking up the pieces of her life after Cyclone Pam has ripped through Vanuatu. With a mystery at its heart, Sado guides us through the lives of villagers and expats, as cultures and communities clash in a time of crisis. A deeply thoughtful book that leaves the reader rethinking how help is given and received.
