" Vanua is the land and you and your clan belong to, but it's more than that. It's the people who live there now and those who have lived there before. It's the traditions they've had and the songs they've sung. What they believed in and what they loved, the togetherness and the memories. The joy over babies who are born and the grief over those who have died. "
― Anne Østby , Pieces of Happiness: A Novel of Friendship, Hope and Chocolate
