Huia Short Stories 8

Description

Here are the best short stories as and novel extracts from the Pikihuia Awards for Maori Writers 2009, as judged by David Geary, Julian Wilcox and Briar Grace-Smith. For over ten years the Maori Literature Trust and Huia Publishers have been organising this unique and increasingly popular biennial writing competition, producing award-winning Maori writers. The awards and their subsequent publications have become well-known and much-anticipated as they bring more undiscovered gems to the attention of the New Zealand reading public. Past winners and finalists include James George, Briar Grace-Smith, Isabel Waiti-Mulholland, Kelly AnaMorey and Paula Morris.
