STOPOVER, a story of migration
VATIYAKA, VITI LEVU, FIJI, 2001
Saturday, 4 August 2001. Suman Kumar (32) returns from lunch across his cousin's, Dharmen Kumar, recently cut top field. The knives he carries weigh about one pound and produce an elegant arc when swung from above the shoulder to the base of the sugar cane. Some cutters are better than others, quicker, balanced and more focussed. Suman and his brother, Salance, could claim to be amongst the better skilled.
