The anthology of Māori poetry I read was my tenth book for 2021, getting off to a good start on my 130 goal before work resumes in earnest at the end of January. It also showed me a useful way to complete my personal Five Eyes challenge while reading from VERY diverse authors. The thees addressed in the poems, and the styles used made me think that reading indigenous poetry in English from the remaining three of the Five Eyes (Aus, Can, US) will be a very informative and challenging experience, as the Māori one was.
