Paradise

The prolific Pulitzer Prize-winning McMurtry effortlessly weaves travel and biography in this absorbing account of his 1999 voyage from Tahiti to the Marquesas aboard the cruise-freighter Aranui. He contrasts the islands and his experiences with his landlocked childhood in hardscrabble North Texas.  (PAC176, $13.00)
