Description

Whanau by Witi Ihimaera. 'Whanau means Family, and Whanau is about the extended family life of a rural Maori community. Members of the family are returning home to their village after a wedding. Follow them out by bus to their community. Haere mai, come and meet them. Come and walk down the road which runs through the village. You will meet: Rongo Mahana alone in a landscape altered by Pakeha values. Miro Mananui, fighting to retain her land. Andrew Whatu, who must leave the village to follow his ambitions. Mattie Jones, who came back to the village defeated by the city. Nanny Paora, escaping the present by living in the past. These are some of the village people. There are more. Together they are Whanau.
