English Summary/英文概要： Olga In 1944, twelve-year-old Olga allows an untrue rumour to circulate in her Dalmatian village. That misunderstanding reverberates through the final stages of World War II, the refugee camps of Egypt and finally, a new life in New Zealand.

Pualele Nine-year-old Pualele arrives in New Zealand in 1978 as part of an illegal family adoption. Life is confusing and frightening as police conduct dawn raids searching for Pacific Islanders who have overstayed their visas. When she is finally called back to Samoa as an adult, she must decide who she is and where she belongs as she is confronted by what she reads in Olga’s journal.

Rich Man Road is a story of dislocation, lost love and the complex relationship between mothers and daughters. The women become friends as Olga lies dying, and through her diary, we learn how the two women’s lives are connected. Rich Man Road was released on 31March 2015 and has been on the NZ fiction bestseller list since, debuting at number 2 and twice reaching number 1, finally nudging out our Man Booker Prize winner The Luminaries for top place.
