  • Māori Young Adult Fiction

    Much like works by Indigenous authors, Māori works are also accompanied by recurring themes of the search for identity, and the impact of Māori and Pākehā culture in a post-Waitangi nation. There is a great presence of storytelling and fantasy in these works sure to engage any young audience.

    As these books are not written by Australian authors or have any direct connection to Australia, they will not be indexed on AustLit.
