Summary:
Men and women - who looks after the children? Who has the right to make decisions about the family? George and Sheila have to decide these issues when Sheila gets the chance to go to the Solomon Islands with her netball team. George was brought up to believe that a man is the boss. He's seen the way his father treated his mother, and when Sheila won't do what he wants, those memories come floating back. A powerful look at gender and cultural norms in the Pacific.
