Available in audio for the first time is Aotearoa New Zealand's first Booker Prize-winning novel, The Bone People by Keri Hulme.
With narration and original taonga puoro music by Ruby Solly, this powerful and mesmerising book tracks the complicated relationships between three outcasts: Kerewin, an artist estranged from her family and art; a mute boy called Simon, who tries to steal from her; and his tender but brutal foster father Joe.
Keri Hulme (Ngai Tahu) was born in 1947 and died in 2021. She was a novelist, poet and short-story writer. Her novel The Bone People won the Booker Prize in 1985, making her the first New Zealander to win the award, and also the first winner for a debut work. She held various writing fellowships at several universities, served on the Literary Fund Advisory Committee and on the Indecent Publications Tribunal. The Bone People was selected as the 2014 Great Kiwi Classic.
