Reviews

"This collection confirms Wendt as Polynesia's preeminent writer." --David Eggleton, poet, Fast Talker

"The act of making a poem can be described as that of making the imaginative visible and heard. In Albert Wendt's latest work, The Book of the Black Star, this becomes doubly so as the poet combines his usual word-smithing with graphic mark-making." -- Shonagh Lindsay, New Zealand Herald on The Book of the Black Star
