Description
Chappy Patricia Grace First edition 2015, Penguin Softcover. 253 pages. 23.5x15cm.
This book is in very good condition. Appears unread - there is no reading creasing. Minor damage to top of a few pages, perhaps from being dropped. If you are having a second-hand Christmas this year this book will make a fine gift. There are no inscriptions.
Patricia Grace's first novel in ten years
Spanning several decades and several continents and set against the backdrop of a changing New Zealand, 'Chappy' is a compelling story of enduring love.
Uprooted from his privileged European life and sent to New Zealand to sort himself out, twenty-one-year-old Daniel pieces together the history of his Maori family. As his relatives revisit their past, Daniel learns of a remarkable love story between his Maori grandmother Oriwia and his Japanese grandfather Chappy. The more Daniel hears about his deceased grandfather, the more intriguing - and elusive - Chappy becomes.
In this touching portrayal of family life, acclaimed writer Patricia Grace explores racial intolerance, cross-cultural conflicts and the universal desire to belong.
