Tuesday 10 March 2026

This is Aotearoa, New Zealand.
This is a novel about who we are now.
Past, present and future.
All that we have
is All That We Know.

Meet Māreikura Pohe: she’s in love with her best friend, though he’s about to abandon her;and she’s an accidental activist, though she never asked for the spotlight. Navigating self-diagnosed ADHD and a new relationship while reclaiming her language is no easy feat. But as her platform grows, Māreikura unwittingly becomes a voice for change against the far-reaching consequences of colonisation.The question remains: at what personal cost?

The stunning debut adult novel from award-winning writer Shilo Kino, All That We Know interrogates the far-reaching consequences of colonisation while simultaneously making you laugh and cry. Perfect for readers of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, Greta & Valdin and Such a Fun Age.

Shilo Kino's new novel is out soon, so read an extract while you wait!
