About this book
' He manawaru, he tauteute hoki tenei pukapuka e ata whakaahua ana i te wa koroniara o Aotearoa, i te wa Wikitoria hoki o Ingarangi, ma roto i te tirohanga a tetahi rangatira no Ngati Wai. E miharo rawa atu ana te mahi a Paula Morris ki te whakamarama i te ao o tona tupuna, o Paratene Te Manu, me te aha, kua whai reo ano te rangatira ra e tuturu ana, e marama ana hoki. I tino hakoakoa te ngakau i tenei pukapuka, a, ka kaha tutohua ki nga tangata katoa o Aotearoa.' — Carol Hirschfeld Ko Rangatira, he pukapuka na Paula Morris, te toa o te New Zealand Post Book Award for Fiction i te tau 2012. Koia tetahi o nga pukapuka hirahira rawa atu o Aotearoa, a, kua whakamaoritia tuatahitia nei e Hinewai Pomare. ' He pukapuka tenei kua ata whakairotia . . . Kua eke marire te whakaahuatanga mai o Paratene ki te taumata, ko tana reo he humarie, he tuturu marika ano hoki.' — John McCrystal, New Zealand Listener — ' This is an intriguing and engrossing novel that vividly brings to life colonial New Zealand and Victorian England through the eyes of a Ngati Wai rangatira. Paula Morris has done an extraordinary job in capturing the life of her tupuna, Paratene Te Manu, and gives him a voice that is at once authentic and insightful. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and highly recommend it to all New Zealanders.' — Carol Hirschfeld Winner of the New Zealand Post Book Award for Fiction in 2012, Paula Morris' s Rangatira is one of the great New Zealand novels, here translated into te reo Maori for the first time by Hinewai Pomare. ' [An] adroitly told historical novel . . . Paratene [is] a triumph of characterisation, his voice genial and flawlessly authentic.' — John McCrystal, New Zealand Listener
