The New Zealand Novel 1860-1965

Two Firsts

Two Firsts. Just before Christmas 1960 two novels by new writers came from English publishing houses. Noel Milliard's Maori Girl is the first full-length story of the modern Maori which we have had; Frances Keinzly's Tangahano is in the tradition of Jane Mander, being a study of the collapse of a marriage under the special conditions offered by the mushroom settlements of the dam-builders on the Waikato River.
