<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Hawaii Nei brings together three plays by one of Hawaii's finest playwrights. A compassionate portrait of early nineteenth- century Hawaii, The Conversion of Kaahumanu charts the lives of five women during the traumatic, transforming events that followed Western contact. Set in post-World War II Hawaii, Emmalehua tells the story of a young Hawaiian woman struggling to preserve a cherished cultural heritage in a world eager to forget the past and embrace the new American dream. Through history, humor, and a whodunnit plot, the past and present collide in Ola Na Iwi, which explores the issues surrounding the treatment of indigenous human remains.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Represents the very best of indigenous theatre. . . . Each play is written with verve and wit and has a sure sense of theatricality."<br>
