Winner of the Booker Prize in 1985, Keri Hulme's The Bone People is the story of Kerewin, a despairing part-Maori artist who is convinced that her solitary life is the only way to face the world. 'In this novel, New Zealand's people, its heritage and landscape are conjured up with uncanny poetry and perceptiveness' - Sunday TimesKerewin's cocoon is rudely blown away by the sudden arrival during a rainstorm of Simon, a mute six-year-old whose past seems to hold some terrible trauma. In his wake comes his foster-father Joe, a Maori factory worker with a nasty temper.

The narrative unravels to reveal the truths that lie behind these three characters, and in so doing displays itself as a huge, ambitious work that tackles the clash between Maori and European characters in beautiful prose of a heartrending poignancy.

Worth it if you need it
Format: Paperback
I bought this book because it was required for my college course and cheaper on Amazon. The book is good, especially if it's required for a course. However, I ended up not using much of it, so it was kind of a waste of money. However, if you do need to use it and will use it more than I did, it's worth the savings to buy it here.
