Bird child & other stories : a powerful new collection from one of Aotearoa's most esteemed fiction writers

Grace, Patricia, 1937-

"The titular story 'Bird Child' plunges you deep into Te Kore, an ancient time before time. In another, the formidable goddess Mahuika, Keeper of Fire, becomes a doting mother and friend. Later, Grace's own childhood vividly shapes the world of the young character Mereana; and a widower's hilariously human struggle to parent his seven daughters is told with trademark wit and crackling dialogue." -- Back cover.
