Download or read book Into the River written by Ted Dawe and published by Penguin Random House New Zealand Limited. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gripping, gritty and award-winning coming-of-age novel for young adult readers. When Te Arepa Santos is dragged into the river by a giant eel, something happens that will change the course of his whole life. The boy who struggles to the bank is not the same one who plunged in, moments earlier. He has brushed against the spirit world, and there is a price to be paid; an utu (revenge) to be exacted. Years later, far from the protection of whanau (family) and ancestral land, he finds new enemies. This time, with no one to save him, there is a decision to be made: he can wait on the bank, or leap forward into the river. At the 2013 NZ Post Childrens Book Awards Into the River was judged the Margaret Mahy Book of the Year. It also won the Young Adult Fiction category of the awards. An engaging coming-of-age novel, it follows its main protagonist from his childhood in small-town rural New Zealand to an elite Auckland boarding school, where he must forge his own way – including battling with his cultural identity. This prequel to Ted Dawe's award-winning novel Thunder Road is gritty, provocative, at times shocking, but always real and true. The awards' chief judge Bernard Beckett described a character "caught between two worlds ... the explicit content was presented as the danger of people being left adrift by society. And within that context, hard-hitting material is crucial; it is what makes the book authentic, real and important." The Deputy Chief Censor of Fim and Literature ruled that the book is not offensive: 'The book deals with some stronger content. There are sexual relationships between teenagers, encounters with possible child sexual exploitation, the use of illegal drugs and other criminal activities, violent assault, and a moderate level of highly offensive language. These are well contextualised within an exciting fast moving narrative that has as its protagonist, a young teenage Maori boy from a rural community who is finding his way through the strange uncomfortable environment of a boys’ boarding school and unfamiliar social mores. The story captures the raw and real extremes of adolescence in teenage boys along with their yearnings and obsessions. The book is notable for being one of the first in the New Zealand which specifically targets teenage boys and younger men — a genre that does not have great representation. The genre character is therefore significant. The content immerses the reader in action, wit, and intrigue, as well as a level of social realism, all likely to engage teen and young adult readers and with particular appeal for older boys and young men.'

Download or read book The Adventures of Kimble Bent written by James Cowan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Adventures of Kimble Bent: A Story of Wild Life in the New Zealand Bush This book is not a work of fiction. It is a plain narrative of real life in the New Zealand bush, a true story of adventure in a day not yet remote, when adventure in abundance was still to be had in the land of the Maori. Every name used is a real one, every character who appears in these pages had existence in those war days of forty years ago. Every incident described here is a faithful record of actual happenings; some of them may convince the reader that truth can be stranger than fiction.

Download or read book The New Zealand Tourist Classic Reprint written by Thomas Bracken and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Zealand Tourist Here are the dells of peace and plenilune, The hills of morning and the slopes of noon Here are the waters dear to days of blue, And dark green hollows of the noontide dew. We have no desire to detract from the merits of the Sister Colonies on the contrary, we should be gratified to find thousands of British, European and American tourists visiting Australia and Tasmania annually. But, at the same time, we deem it our duty to establish the fact that, for romantic and magnificent scenery, coupled with volcanic marvels, New Zealand is without a rival. Of course there are a few travellers to be met with now and again who are incapable of enjoying or appreciating the sublimities -of Nature. Matter-of-fact individuals who see everything with the eyes of Peter Bell A primrose by the river's brim, A yellow primrose was to him, And it was nothing more. The stupendous grandam of our scenery would be wasted upon people of this stamp. That grand old Sage of the nineteenth century, Thomas Carlyle, has observed A man will see nothing in a scene or event, but what he comes to with the power of seeing. The justice of this remark is very apparent, for unless a person has an eye for the beautiful in nature, he cannot be induced to go in search of it. Taking it for granted, however, that our reader is the possessor of a refined mind, and of an elevated taste, we beg to assure him that if he desires rich fields for aesthetic realisation, combined with ample scope for physical relaxation and enjoyment, he will find them to his heart's content by making a tour through New Zealand.
