Wahine Kaituhi: Women Writers of Aotearoa by Spiral

A literary catalogue introducing women writers of Aotearoa through personal statements, portraits and lists of their books, with particular attention to Māori writers. Marian Evans researched and co-ordinated the publication for Spiral; Irihapeti Ramsden designed the cover and named the catalogue, and Miriama Evans contributed the essay on Māori women’s writing. Published in Wellington in 1985, this is a valuable record of the period’s writing and independent feminist publishing.
