Review of Whale Rider (2003) by Corn O — 26 Jun 2009
A tale about a girl fighting for her grandfather's love, thereby challenging the male dominated traditions of her people. The story is told in beautiful images and moving scenes. It gives good insights into a more or less intact culture of rural Maori and the challenges it is confronted with in modern times.
