Résumé du livre

"Dark Saints is about the Gods of Polynesia. Saint Tagaroa. Saint Tane. Saint Huanaki. Saint Hine. Saint Tuna. Sait Limaua. Saint Papatuanuku. Saint Maui. Saint Omai. Saint Tupaia. Dark Saints is also about these uncertain times we live in. So when I see my heart carried up a mountain, along with guns, war torn countries and dreams essential for protection and other worldly functions, I remember these lines: When the soul has been wounded and the sun is keen to surface in the dark, there is one place that I go to , that place fills the earth's land with moisture and water, that place the ancients call mother of all mothers, the ocean. Our Saints never really disappeared. They all became attached to the upper plateaus of memory. John Pule, Auckland, 2012"--Gallery website.
