Sinabada is a novel written by Elinor Mordaunt. The story is set in the remote island of Sinabada, located in the South Seas. The plot revolves around the life of a young English woman, named Lucy Hales, who travels to Sinabada to be with her father, who is the governor of the island. Lucy arrives on the island and is immediately fascinated by the beauty and exoticism of the place. She soon discovers that life on the island is not as idyllic as she had imagined. The island is plagued by political unrest, and there are tensions between the native people and the European colonizers. As Lucy tries to navigate this new world, she finds herself drawn to a charismatic native leader named Rua. Rua is passionate about freeing his people from colonial rule, and Lucy becomes caught up in his cause. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Lucy is a European and Rua is a native. The novel explores themes of colonialism, cultural clashes, and forbidden love. It is a vivid and engaging portrait of life in the South Seas at the turn of the century.The Autobiography Of A British Woman Became Known As Sinabada, Lady King, Over Sixty Cannibal Islands Among The Trobriands.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
