He kohinga toikupu hōu, he kohinga toikupu tawhito. Ko ngā toikupu katoa i tuhia ki te reo Māori nā Vaughan Rapatahana me ngā whakapākehā hoki. A new poetry collection is an old poetry collection. All the poems written in te reo Māori by Vaughan Rapatahana with 'translations' into English as well.
This is a collection of Rapatahana’s poetry across several years, written in te reo Māori (with English language translations). He believes this is a unique work of contemporary Māori language poetry, as well as emphasising throughout that the two languages are essentially incompatible and never fully translatable one into the other.
