Hers is a complicated, joyful route, full of conversations with ancestors, old places and herself. In form these poems range from plain-speaking prose and concrete poetry to odes and spells; in mood they are just as restless, taking in those times when life feels as big as a movie screen and times when it is more like ' a loose stone to kick down the path'.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Gathered here are names that travel through time, failed photos of the moon, and love like a feather in the throat. There are encounters with Hine-te-iwaiwa, the bird-woman Kurangaituku, Hine-nui-te-po, and Hinemoana as she erodes the land with her wildness. This whole-hearted collection shows us how many ways there are to search for one's bones and at last get to know them.","brand":"Unity Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43584720830661,"sku":"","price":30.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/6679\/3413\/files\/Plastic.jpg?v=1716679063","url":"https:\/\/unitybooks.myshopify.com\/products\/plastic","provider":"Unity Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
