award-winning novel about two rival Maori families on the East
Coast, Bulibasha. Bulibasha is the title given to the King of the
Gypsies, and on the East Coast of New Zealand two patriarchs fight
to be proclaimed the king. Tamihana is the leader of the great
Mahana family of shearers and sportsmen and women. Rupeni Poata is
his arch enemy. The two families clash constantly, in sport, in
cultural contests and, finally, in the Golden Fleece competition to
find the greatest shearing gang in New Zealand. Caught in the
middle of this struggle is the teenager Simeon, grandson of the
patriarch and of his grandmother Ramona, struggling with his own
feelings and loyalties as the battles rage on many levels. Winner
of the 1995 Montana New Zealand Book Award, brilliantly realised in
the film Mahana and loved by generations of readers, this powerful
te reo Maori translation of a New Zealand classic will introduce
Bulibasha to a whole new audience.
