One of the greats of Māori literature, Witi Ihimaera is a prolific writer of short stories and novels whose sensational story The Whale Rider is an antipodean classic. To mark the 50th anniversary of both his short story collection, Pounamu Pounamu, and of his first novel, Tangi, Ihimaera reflects on a life in writing and the reconciliation of indigenous perspectives with western forms of literature.
