Ralph Hotere (Te Aupouri and Te Rarawa; 1931?2013) was one of Aotearoa?s most significant modern artists.

Hotere invited the poet, novelist and biographer Vincent O?Sullivan to write his life story in 2005.

Now, this book ? the result of years of research and many conversations with Hotere and his fellow artists, collaborators, friends and family ? provides a nuanced, compelling portrait of Hotere: the man, and the artist.
