it's not all pretty. Machismo is the way to go for many NZers; it is still seen as 'being strong'. While the story is definitely beset with extremely sad, unfortunate events and outcomes, itâs also one of hope, self-improvement, and the betterment of an entire community. But unlike you, Jake, they were people with mana, pride, people with spirit. Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account. It's taken me a long time to pluck up the courage to read this book and I will never watch the film. Although almost 20 years old, sadly, this story hasn’t dated nearly as much as we’d like to imagine it is. .p13n-sc-grid-four-pack{content:"";display:table;clear:both;width:100%;border-top:solid #fff 1px}.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-no-border{border-top:none}.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-header{padding-left:15px}div.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-faceout-container{width:50%;height:190px;float:left;box-sizing:border-box;-moz-box-sizing:border-box;-webkit-box-sizing:border-box;position:relative;margin-bottom:0;overflow:hidden}div.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-faceout-container-left{border-right:solid #fff 1px;border-bottom:solid #fff 1px}div.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-faceout-container-right{border-bottom:solid #fff 1px}.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-faceout{background-image:url(http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/p13n-sc/loader._V327848335_.gif);background-repeat:no-repeat;background-position:center;height:100%;position:relative}.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-faceout-link{display:block;width:100%;height:100%;opacity:0}.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-faceout-image{position:absolute;width:100%;height:100%;max-width:none}.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-faceout-title-container{display:table;z-index:5;position:absolute;bottom:0;width:100%;height:58px;background-color:rgba(0,0,0,.8)}.p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-faceout-title{display:table-cell;font-size:13px;text-align:center;vertical-align:middle;padding:12px 10px;color:#fff}.gwPromo{border-color:#FFF}.gwPromo .p13n-sc-grid-four-pack-faceout{height:190px} That was (as expected) a full on read.

Poverty breeds these things and there is plenty of that here. There's nothing pretty here, but that's its power. While previously we were able to read Beth's every thought process and emotion, it seems as though at some point all of that was ignored; so things like Beth's emotional state, the difficulties she might've faced in trying to pull herself away from an abusive relationship with a man she loved, and what brought her to her decision to bring the Maori chief to Pine Block weren't really addressed as much as I would've hoped. .bRecImageSize{height:96px;width:96px;background-size:auto 96px!important;opacity:1;-moz-transition:opacity .2s ease-in-out;-webkit-transition:opacity .2s
