“When the journey toward healing leads to the unfathomable”
In May 2024, news of a murder in the Polynesian nation of Samoa rocked the Pacific. The perpetrator, Sia Figiel, was a trailblazing novelist and poet who won international acclaim for being the first to write about the difficult realities Samoan girls and women face. The victim was her friend, who was also a poet.
