520 _aSent to New Zealand, his mother's distant homeland, to sort himself out, twenty-one year old Daniel embarks on piecing together the history of the Maori family he knows little about. As his grandmother Oriwia and reclusive adopted uncle Aki revisit their past, mysteries and secrets resurface that cause everyone to search deep into their souls. In this touching portrayal of family life, Patricia Grace gently probes issues of racial intolerance, cross cultural-conflicts and the deep-seated need to belong. Spanning several decades and set against the backdrop of a changing New Zealand society, Chappy is a story of enduring love and acceptance.
