Description

Ko tōku reo, tōku ohooho, tōku māpihi maurea, tōku whakakai marihi. My language is my precious gift, my object of affection, and my prized ornament. This sparkling new collection brings more than 40 languages together, story by story, highlighting the beautifully complex realities of Aotearoa’s multicultural and multilingual society. Including microfictions and creative nonfictions, plus 12 essays from language practitioners and experts, Te Moana o Reo holds words to the light, examining, contemplating and declaring who we are. This is a 21st-century view of Aotearoa, a taonga for our world.
