Kahala

by Laurie Ames Birnsteel

Had Milton not used the title, "Paradise Lost" would aptly apply to "Kahala". Set in Hawaii in the 1950s, the story is told in a series of vignettes describing the author's humorous and poignant attempts to tame her unconventional mother in a very conventional time.
