ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Euphoria, by Lily King, is a novel that explores the tumultuous relationships between three anthropologists in 1930s New Guinea. The story centers on Nell Stone, her husband Fen, and their colleague Andrew Bankson, as they navigate the complexities of fieldwork and their own personal desires. The narrative delves into themes of cultural understanding, the ethics of anthropological research, and the impact of colonialism. The relationships become intertwined with professional ambitions and personal biases, while examining how the characters’ actions have lasting consequences, both for themselves and for the cultures they study.
