Bernard Judge recounts his life changing experience while discovering the culture of Polynesia and Tahiti in the early 70s, before mass tourism, electrification and the automobile changed everything. The book is filled with amusing anecdotes about his famous client. It exposes Marlon Brando the man, not the actor, his foibles and eccentricities and regales the reader with Brandos ridiculous exploits with women. It is also a narrative about Tetiaroa, Brandons private atoll, about living in nature without despoiling the environment. Questions are asked. Should a hotel be built? What are the consequences? It tells of how Brando and his architect came to an understanding, an appreciation for the atolls archeology, its ecology, and the interdependence of its marine life, sea birds and nesting turtle grounds. It is an unusual convergence of adventure, of reaching for a dream, and a compelling love story richly told and illustrated with beautiful historic photographs of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n        ","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49675180245232,"sku":"NEW0982622643","price":10.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/waltzing-with-brando-planning-a-paradise-in-tahiti-by-judge","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
