Māreikura has become an accidental activist, gaining a public platform she never asked for while trying to make sense of changes in her private life. Her friendship with Bex is under strain, a new relationship brings complications, and a diagnosis of ADHD adds another dimension to understanding herself. At the same time, reclaiming her language leads her towards questions of identity, inheritance and the lasting consequences of colonisation. As her audience grows, speaking out becomes both a source of purpose and a personal burden. Shilo Kino's contemporary New Zealand novel combines sharp humour with an exploration of family, belonging and connection, following a woman learning how much of herself she can give to the expectations of others.
