About this listen

 There has never been a New Zealand novel quite like The Parihaka Woman. Richly imaginative and original, weaving together fact and fiction, it sets the remarkable story of Erenora against the historical background of the turbulent and compelling events that occurred in Parihaka during the 1870s and 1880s. Parihaka is the place Erenora calls home, a peaceful Taranaki settlement overcome by war and land confiscation. As her world is threatened, Erenora must find within herself the strength, courage and ingenuity to protect those whom she loves. And, like a Shakespearean heroine, she must change herself before she can take up her greatest challenge and save her exiled husband, Horitana.©2011 Witi Ihimaera (P)2016 Bolinda Publishing Fiction Historical Fiction Inspiring War

Exactly the historical listen I was looking for. Engrossed in the content, the lives, the experiences.
It also details horrors enacted in indigenous people.
