From Manoa to a Ponsonby Garden
Published by Auckland University Press, NZ, 2012
ISBN 10: 1869407342 ISBN 13: 9781869407346
Language: English
Paperback. Condition: New. This new collection by Albert Wendt moves from the warm valley winds of Hawai'i to the seasons of a garden in Auckland, New Zealand. From Manoa to a Ponsonby Garden is a collection of poignant, extraordinary poems - alert and self-confident, challenging of literary conventions, rough-hewn yet imbued with compelling vitalism - by one of our most celebrated writers. Writing, family and the passing of time are constant preoccupations. Opening in Hawai'i, Wendt watches the changing shadows of the mountains from his verandah; considers the nature of mauli, the seat of life; walks protected in his wife's perfumed slipstream to work; and writes to Hone Tuwhare. In the second half, his Ponsonby garden provides the setting and vivid detail for 38 'garden' poems, interspersed with inky, drawn works. If hips need replacing, poets grow older, tsunami destroy and friends slip away, still a spirit of renewal pervades this collection.

Out of the Vaipe, the Deadwater: A Writer's Early Life (Paperback)
Published by Bridget Williams Books, Wellington, 2015
ISBN 10: 0908321228 ISBN 13: 9780908321223
Language: English
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Albert Wendt crosses into new and deeply personal territory in this stirring BWB Text. Returning to his boyhood in the Vaipe, a suburb of Apia in Samoa, sees Wendt confront elemental questions: Is the Vaipe he has created in his stories, poetry and novels really the Vaipe that existed and exists in real life? Or is it real only in his books? Is there a difference between the two? And does it matter? The responses form a vivid narrative that draws on a life of award-winning writing, and returns full circle to the symbolic world of the Deadwater. For many years the Pacific's leading novelist, poet and academic, Albert Wendt ventures into fascinating and deeply personal new territory. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
