Ko Aotearoa Tātou | We Are New Zealand is bursting with new works of fiction, nonfiction, poetry and visual art created in response to the editors’ questions: What is New Zealand now, in all its rich variety and contradiction, darkness and light? Who are New Zealanders? The works flowed in from well-known names and new voices, from writers and artists from Kerikeri to Bluff. Some are teenagers still at school; some are in their eighties. Māori, Pākehā, Pasifika, Asian, new migrants, young voices, queer writers, social warriors ... Aotearoa’s many faces are represented in this unique and important compendium. A list of all contributors can be found at https://wearenewzealand.org/ PUBLISHED: October 2020 by Otago University Press. Available at all good bookshops and online in Aotearoa/New Zealand.
