Glenn is a doctor. During his training he took a year off to live in a remote Bay of Islands community.  This is a profound, beautiful and funny distillation of that experience. Rich insights into Maori and Pakeha - a vision of Aotearoa New Zealand now and for the future.

We've published some very good poetry but this is ... extraordinary.
