Description

A stunning new collection of poetry and stories by contemporary Māori writers.


Through poetry and short stories, over 80 contemporary Maori writers explore a vast array of issues that challenge, stimulate and intrigue. Chosen for their verbal dexterity, originality and insight, they express compassion, concern, curiosity, suffering and joy.


Te Awa o Kupu is a companion volume to Nga Kupu Wero, which focuses on recent nonfiction. Together these two passionate and vibrant anthologies reveal that the irrepressible river of words flowing from Māori writers today shows us who and what we are as we surge into the future.
