'A powerful, beautiful book. Its fierce love - of the land, the ocean, the elders and the ancestors - warms the heart and moves the spirit.' - Alice Walker, author of The Color PurplePart memoir, part manifesto, Chamorro climate activist Julian Aguon's No Country for Eight-Spot Butterflies is a coming-of-age story and a call for justice-for everyone, but in particular, for Indigenous peoples.Aguon beautifully weaves together stories from his childhood in the villages of Guam with searing political commentary about matters ranging from nuclear weapons to global warming. Bearing witness and reckoning with the challenges of truth-telling in an era of rampant obfuscation, he culls from his own life experiences to illuminate a collective path out of the darkness.A powerful and bold new voice writing at the intersection of Indigenous rights and environmental justice, Aguon is entrenched in the struggles of the people of the Pacific who are fighting to liberate themselves from colonial rule, defend their sacred sites and obtain justice for generations of harm.In No Country for Eight-Spot Butterflies, Aguon shares his wisdom and reflections on love, grief, joy and triumph, and extends an offer to join him in a hard-earned hope for a better world. - LjudbokEngelska, 2022

Eine charismatische Stimme der ozeanischen Welt – und ein Weckruf an die MenschheitJulian Aguon schreibt von einem Teil der Erde, der aus der Perspektive des Westens meist nur im Kontext geopolitischer Strategien vorkommt: Guam ist ein Hoheitsgebiet der USA, die es vor allem als Militärbasis nutzen. Und es gehört zu Mikronesien – Tausenden pazifischen Inseln, die davon bedroht sind, in den kommenden Jahrzehnten vom Ozean verschluckt zu werden. An diesem Ort zeigt sich, wie verbunden Kolonialismus und Klimawandel wirken, doch das Guam von Julian Aguon ist auch eine Welt alter Überlieferungen, verwurzelter Gemeinschaft und einzigartiger Schönheit.Wir brauchen neue Geschichten, schreibt Aguon – "Geschichten über unsere kleinen Ecken der Welt, geschrieben aus Liebe." Als Rechtsanwalt und Aktivist kämpft er um Gerechtigkeit für die indigenen Menschen in seiner Heimat und anderswo. In seinem Buch öffnet Aguon uns die Augen für das, was wir vergessen haben zu beachten – in der Welt und in uns selbst. Und er legt Zeugnis ab von den Verlusten und der Schönheit Ozeaniens: mit dem Charisma eines Freiheitskämpfers und der Stimme eines Dichters. - Häftad, Engelska, 2006
