A Hawaii Anthology

the long version

Since its inception in 1974, the Hawai'i Award for Literature has recognized the work of writers who have captured important dimensions of the story of Hawai'i and of the many groups of people who have made Hawai'i their home. Historians, linguists, folklorists, and practitioners of other disciplines of cultural study, as well as poets, novelists, and playwrights, are among the contributors to this extensive anthology celebrating more than two decades of the best writings in the Islands.
