Beskrivelse

Originally commissioned as the libretto for a work by composer John Psathas for the 50th birthday celebration of the Orpheus Choir, this book-length poem offers fresh perspectives on the familiar story of Cook's Pacific explorations. Employing a broad bicultural approach to reinterpret the Orpheus myth for the South Pacific, Sullivan uses a wide range of styles-from 18th-century dialogue to 21st-century hip hop cadences-to create a revisionist Cook who must accept responsibility for the damage his expeditions have inflicted on the indigenous peoples of the Pacific.
