The second volume in the award-winning Whetu Moana series featuring Polynesian poetry in English, Mauri Ola is a fresh selection of poetry written over the last 25 years by over 70 writers from Aotearoa, Hawaii, Tonga, Samoa, the Cook Islands, Niue, Tahiti and Rotuma, and from Polynesian poets scattered around the world. Many of the original Whetu Moana poets reappear - as well as the new voices of an exciting young generation. Energetic, courageous and vital, the poems in this anthology confront both a complex colonial past and a fast-moving global present, proving the creative energy and thriving well-being of Polynesian literature.
