When darkness stays : Hōhepa Kereopa and a Tūhoe oral history / Paul Moon - 138 pages ; 24 cm.
This extraordinary book, unsettling, harrowing, and ultimately redemptive, is based on the time the author spent with the Tūhoe tohunga, Hōhepa Kereopa. It plunges deep into a cultural landscape that has almost vanished, bringing to light insights that are enriching and sometimes shocking. The work climaxes with a staggering oral history that has never appeared in print until now, and which reveals one of the most tragic and distressing events in the country's colonial era.
