Description
[This book] is about different kinds of love: the love of Ripeka (who is also Ngaio and Londa) for her parents and her extended family, and their love for her; love of the land and of traditional Maori ways of living; and love between Ripeka and Graeme, a young Pakeha schoolteacher. It is the story ... of Ripeka's attempts to free herself from the old bondings, and of what happens when, after her marriage, she moves away physically into a Pakeha and urban world and discovers that she cannot move away spiritually - discovers the strength of the old ways. ..."--Back cover.
