Title: Navigating The Stars – Maori Creation Myths
Author: IHIMAERA WITI
From master storyteller Witi Ihimaera, a spellbinding and provocative retelling of traditional Maori myths for the twenty-first century. In this milestone volume, Ihimaera traces the history of the Maori people through their creation myths. He follows Tawhaki up the vines into the firmament, Hine-titama down into the land of the dead, Maui to the ends of the earth, and the giants and turehu who sailed across the ocean to our shores . . . From Hawaiki to Aotearoa, the ancient navigators brought their myths, while looking to the stars – bright with gods, ancestors and stories – to guide the way. ‘Step through the gateway now to stories that are as relevant today as they ever were.’
