5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely fantastic, September 5, 2003
This is a magnificent story; it's very well written and is both funny and touching. Tho it's based on a Maori family, its themes of family, culture and patriarchy are universal, and this gives the book a broad appeal. Witi Ihimaera is clearly a very gifted author, and I look forward to reading more. I can't recommend this book highly enough!

5.0 out of 5 stars FABULOUS BOOK! WELL WRITTEN AND ENIGHTENING!, January 15, 1999

hclehman@ihug.co.nz (Auckland, New Zealand) - See all my reviews
I loved this book. As an American living in Auckland, New Zealand, I wanted to read some fiction by New Zealand authors. Now that I have read Bulibasha, I am working my way through Ihimaera's other books.

"Bulibasha" is a fascinating novel about two feuding Maori clans, told by the grandson of the patriarch of the Mahana clan. It is a brilliant portrayl of Maori family life in the 1950's. I won't give away any more. A must read for anyone interested in New Zealand, and a great read for anyone! It is required reading in our household.
