A South Sea Lover: A Romance is a novel written by Alfred St. Johnston and published in 1890. The story is set in the South Pacific, where the protagonist, a young man named Jack, falls in love with a beautiful native woman named Tita. Despite the cultural differences between them, Jack and Tita begin a passionate romance that is threatened by the disapproval of both their families and the wider community. Along the way, they encounter a range of obstacles and challenges, including rival suitors, jealous ex-lovers, and dangerous natural phenomena such as storms and tidal waves. Through it all, Jack and Tita must navigate their way towards a happy ending, while also grappling with the complexities of colonialism, race, and identity in the South Pacific. The novel is known for its vivid descriptions of the tropical landscape, as well as its portrayal of the complex and often fraught relationships between Europeans and Pacific Islanders during the late nineteenth century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
