Through the Eye of the Needle: The Personal Chronicle of a Maori Woman

Rating:
Summary: Highlights pro and cons especially in relation to women
Review: Book brings in technical case-study of the Maori culture and
mixes it with easier-to-follow aspects in the life of a cherished elder. It surprised me to learn how cruel and degrading the Maori men treated women, as a practice of culture. Sisters, my sisters, we still have a long way to go. Also, the book discusses how the church influenced changes. I found it shocking that a women was traded off to the church in a bargain of peace? Piece of what?!
