The hilarious and heartwarming new novel by the fabulously entertaining Celestine Hitiura Vaite.
The word on the coconut radio, so Cousin Mori reports, is that the family is calling Pito Tehana a big ziro. His lovely wife Materena is now a big success, the number-one radio star in Tahiti, and she hasn't even turned into a show-off.
But Pito? He won t even take her to a restaurant to celebrate her success. He just smirks and says, "Eh bien, I congratulate my wife in my own way".
Well, nobody is surprised to see Materena run off with a rich boyfriend, especially after Pito says something, when he's a bit drunk and not thinking, that hurts her so deeply she can't breathe.
In the keenly awaited third instalment of the Materena story, 'Tiare: The Husband Who Didn't Deserve His Wife And Everything That Happend Next', we see the Mahi and Tehana clans of Tahiti from the male perspective. And we find out that, even if he will be lucky to get it, a man can still do an awful lot with a second chance.
