Summary: "Sestrina: A Romance of the South Seas" by A. Safroni-Middleton is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the character Royal Clensy, a young Englishman who finds himself captivated by Sestrina, the beautiful daughter of the President of Haiti. Set against the backdrop of the South Seas and the vibrant, tumultuous culture of the time, the book delves into themes of romance, adventure, and conflicts arising from social class and cultural differences. At the start of the novel, we encounter Royal Clensy as he ponders his life on the Marquesan Isles, reflecting on the contrasts between his experiences and the simplicity of island life. His dreamy musings are interrupted by a peculiar trio of characters, each embodying different aspects of the adventure that lies ahead—ranging from the charming yet reckless sailorman Beer de Beer Adams to the boisterous Samuel Bartholomew Biglow. Clensy’s path takes him to Haiti, where he meets Sestrina during a presidential ball, sparking an immediate attraction that intertwines their fates. This introduction sets the stage for a romantic entanglement layered with cultural intrigue and the dark undercurrents of voodoo practices threatening to disrupt their lives.
