Chamorro Fiesta Table: One islander's amusing journey through the well-known party table. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781505421934)

Through this narrative poem, readers will be amused as they closely observe one islander's journey, joys, and jeopardies going through the line of the infamous fiesta table. Celebratory parties are prolific in the pacific islands. Whether it's a party celebrating a patron saint, a baby christening, a wedding, a retirement, or island festival, families and friends shift to party-mode as they dedicate their time and energy to make the event an absolute success. From the coconut fronds and breadfruit leaves to the delicacies that strategically line the table, to the local and hip Cha Cha dance music, these elements are essential, but not as vital as ensuring that there is "more-than-enough food" for the guests. This careful attention to detail and passion that islanders place on preparing the table is truly honorable.
