Reviews

Courtney Sina Meredith is a truly modern New Zealand writer and her poetry carries mana and strength and beauty. I can imagine that Meredith has had many labels attributed to her poetry defining her as a this poet or a that writer but looking past the labels that define her physiology or sexuality, there is one that underpins who she is and what she does: remarkable.
