Miss Ulysses From Puka-puka: A Reading with Johnny Frisbie
Introduction:
Cheryl Edelson, Chaminade University of Honolulu
Author
and traveler
Florence “Johnny” Frisbie was born in Papeete, Tahiti, and grew up on Pukapuka
in the Cook Islands. As a twelve year old, she started to write Miss
Ulysses From Puka-Puka. Published in 1948, this memoir of Oceanic life
would come to be recognized as the first book written by a Polynesian woman.
Frisbie followed Miss Ulysses with The Frisbies of the
South Seas in 1959. Frisbie is one of the most celebrated of Oceanic
authors, and her return to the Cook Islands (alongside friend Amelia Borofsky)
is the subject of the documentary Homecoming: A Film About
Pukapuka (Gemma Cubero del Barrio, forthcoming).
