A powerful and moving memoir, this autobiography traces poet Patrick White’s family history beginning with their arrival in New Zealand from Scotland in the 1800s. Utilizing the landscape as a way to understand himself and his place in the world, White explores both Maori and Pakeha histories and uncovers connections with the early settlers of the North Island. Uniquely personal and honest, this account is a journey of self-illumination.
