Becky Manawatu’s (Ngāi Tahu) sequel to her astonishing debut novel, Auē, is one of the most anticipated novels of 2024. In this novel, Manawatu gives the voice of the story to Kat and her whānau and takes us back to her childhood and the land on which the story started. Join Becky and Meriana Johnsen (Kāi Tahu, Rangitāne) to discuss Kataraina, one of the novels of the year.
