Book Synopsis Kaitiaki O Te Po by : John-Paul Powley
Download or read book Kaitiaki O Te Po written by John-Paul Powley and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-03 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's funny how often I forget the power of stories. In these brilliant and wide-ranging essays John-Paul Powley harnesses the power of stories to tell us about ourselves and where we come from. Acting as `kaitiaki o te po,' a caretaker of history and memory, Powley combines memoir with history and cultural criticism to create essays that expand far beyond the simply personal. Topics that he tackles with intelligence, deep thinking, and often wit, include the untimely death of a friend; a school field trip around India; how the murder of Karl Voelkner by a small number of men meant land confiscation for an entire iwi; how our history plays out in our present, especially for Maori; growing up as a sensitive boy in a patriarchal society; his experiences of being a high-school Dean and trying help the `difficult' kids; and why young men, such as Keats and grunge rockers, are perhaps not the best people to give you advice on how to live your life after all. But, just describing the topics of these essays cannot capture their depth and poetry - the myriad of connections that Powley makes between one thing and another creates richness and resonance. Heart-breaking, hopeful and often blacky hilarious, Kaitiaki o te Po is a powerful debut of an arresting new voice.

Download or read book Luminescent written by Nina Powles and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brilliant and unique debut collection from one of the most exciting young voices in New Zealand poetry. The five colourful chapbooks that make up Luminescent are intended to be read in any order and are gathered together in a cover folder evocative of the night-sky. Each section loosely explores the life and context of a New Zealand woman, from the famous, such as celebrated writer Katherine Mansfield (Sunflowers) and cosmologist Beatrice Tinsley (The Glowing Space Between the Stars), to the possibly fictional school ghost ((Auto)Biography of a Ghost); in between is early settler and whaler¿s wife Betty Guard (Whale Fall), and ill-fated dancer Phyllis Porter (Her and the Flames), who died after her dress caught fire onstage at Wellington¿s Opera House. Whaling, astronomy, dance, haunting and art are all turned to poetic purpose; an autobiographical voice weaves in and out, and connections and resonances draw the parts of Luminescent into a powerful whole. This poetry is both intellectual and moving; utterly contemporary, with a deep connection to the past.

Book excerpt: Madrid, Spain 2019. The end of the UN Climate Change Conference--another moral failure on the part of those who could have made change. I go back to the labour union hall that all the activist groups have been using as a headquarters to help with the clean-up. There are only a few of us left. I take on the communal kitchen and bin heads of broccoli gone to dusty seed and half-used jars of slimy lima beans. I wash towers of greasy plastic cups with cold water and floor cleaner, because that's all there is. The door to the room that held the expensive sound equipment has been broken--no, not just broken, but thoroughly smashed. There is talk of a missing key, something lost in translation. The word 'smithereens' comes to mind. In a back room littered with cardboard and paint tins, I find a giant papier-mache head of a grandmother that First Nations activists fashioned for their part in the climate march. Alone in the echoing halls, it feels like silence and time are demanding something of me--an act of great care--though I don't know how to rise to it. The crisis is upon us, but abstraction is a bulwark; deafness, everywhere. We have come to an edge. I want to find a way of taking the truth into my body, and then putting it down into the ground. From somewhere offstage, a misery of voices starts to murmur in the scrounge. What starts up is a grief work. I wrap the grandmother head in a pall of plastic sheeting and carry it across the city to Desperate Literature bookshop in the rain. Poetry.

Book excerpt: In the spring of 2015 Paula Green walked Queen Charlotte Track, her poets eye taking in the beauty of her surroundings and the history of the land. Early on the final day she slipped and injured herself, and had to walk out for nine hours on her broken foot a journey made more dramatic by the ongoing storm. To get through, and alleviate the pain, she composed poems in her head. The resulting poems are urgent, energetic, obsessive and compelling. Full of pain and joy, they take us on a journey though wild beauty, mind and memory, and a storm of words.
