The audiobook is great for the voice. The physical book has a very helpful word glossary for those who don't know māori.
A book about the intersections of a modern world and how to navigate them: land v industry, indigenous v colonialism, spiritual v physical, love v hate.
Beautifully written and sometimes painful to read.
There were things near the end that went above my head though.
