New Zealand - a very literary country


There are a number of publishers of fine books in New Zealand, and we thought you might like to check out some of them. Please contact us if you would like to share with Kea members the names and contact details of any other publishers.
NB: You can purchase online direct from many NZ publishers; however you might also like to visit KiwiFruits in London (or online), who have an excellent selection of NZ literature and of scenic publications.
Huia Publishers - Maori, Pacific, New Zealand books
Awa Press - intelligent, thought-provoking non-fiction
Te Papa Press - NZ's first dedicated museum publisher, publishing a range of non-fiction titles
Craig Potton Publishing - high quality NZ books and calendars
Gecko Press - specialists in translating curiously good children's literature from around the world
March is New Zealand Book Month, an annual campaign to encourage books and reading. Worth checking out for potential gifts for the family at home.
Retired NZ publisher Graham Beattie writes one of the world's most visited book blogs - definitely worth a regular visit as most new publications in NZ are reviewed by Graham or his colleagues.
