ABOUT
Offers a comprehensive, groundbreaking look at Hiruhārama (Jerusalem), an intentional community established in 1969 along the Whanganui River by New Zealand's most famous poet, James K. Baxter.
He exploring how the poet’s spiritual quest intersected with the people of Ngāti Hau and the communal experiment he helped foster. Newton places Baxter’s ideals poverty, service, and cultural openness against the realities of daily life in the commune.
