Huia Publishers

Huia Publishers – Voicing the stories and aspirations of Aotearoa.

Robyn Rangihuia and Brian Bargh set up Huia (NZ) Ltd as an independent publishing company in 1991. The company builds on Robyn’s compelling vision of growing the number and range of stories of Māori experiences and language in New Zealand literature. She envisages a world of stories and knowledge that reflect the diversity of Māori experiences and the dynamic cultural interface that is an integral part of the evolution of Aotearoa New Zealand. Over more recent years these stories have included the wider Pacific family.

Huia Publishers pride themselves on producing a wide range of groundbreaking, award-winning quality books.

This was recently recognised by two Huia books Tirohia Kimihia and Ocean Roads being short-listed in the Montana New Zealand Book Awards 2007.

In September, the Festival of Māori Writers will culminate in the Pikihuia Awards which celebrate growth and achievement in Māori writing. Huia Publishers initiated the Māori Literature Awards over ten years ago to identify and promote Maori writers. Covering a wide spectrum from adult and young adult fiction to tribal histories to children's literature to critical commentaries on life in Aotearoa - visit www.huia.co.nz and see what's available for you to order online.
