Title: Sculptor of Runanga
Author: MAUNDER PAUL

How far would you go when the world feels unbearable?



Mike Garvey is an ordinary man living on the West Coast of New Zealand-a
sculptor, a neighbour, someone who watches the news like everyone else. But as
the images from Gaza become impossible to ignore, he makes a decision that will
change everything.



Setting up a small tent in Greymouth’s town square, Mike begins a hunger
strike. What starts as a quiet, personal protest soon draws attention from
friends, strangers, and critics alike. As the days pass and his strength fades,
his journey takes him far beyond the place he calls home.



Told through Mike’s own journal and the voices of those around him, The
Sculptor from Runanga is a powerful and deeply human story about courage,
conviction, and the limits of what one person can do.



By turns intimate and wide-reaching, it explores the impact of global events
on ordinary lives, and asks a question that lingers long after the final page:
when faced with suffering, what is our responsibility?



Moving, thought-provoking, and unforgettable, this is a novel about one
man’s stand-and the ripple effects it creates.
