Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: [I was inspired by] the vision of people like [Albert] Wendt, in giving voice to the islanders, to add their own representations to the mix. Because we grew up learning literature without a great sense of place, in all my writing assignments [students] must have the author in mind: what was happening at that time in Samoa and wherever the book is set? Then I fill in that background, so all my courses are interdisciplinary in nature: geography, history, and that history for me is so critical.
