A young Polynesian woman, Poema Farepa, learns from a neighbor that a highway is to be built next to her property in a quiet area on the west coast of Tahiti. As she slowly describes to her little nieces her plot to stop the project, she tells them of her childhood in the Tuamotu Archipelago. Poema is born unwanted into her family. She endures a difficult childhood of work and neglect and mischief, uplifted only by the appearances of the ghost of her grandmother. She is influenced heavily by the visit of the niece of the Belgian parish priest. She has a sexual encounter at an island feast and becomes pregnant. She is found out by her mother, is beaten, and loses the child. She becomes incorrigible and is sent to Tahiti to be with her sister. Poema continues her plotting against the highway, making up her schemes as she goes along, and tells her nieces of her move to Tahiti and her life there.
