Andrea Hotere, daughter of renowned Aotearoa artist Ralph Hotere and acclaimed poet Cilla McQueen has released her first novel, The Vanishing Point. The book is a fast-paced contemporary historical novel set in the 1600s and 1990s that twists and turns to a banger of an ending. Andrea says she wants the book to encourage the reader’s sense of curiosity about art in a way that is fun and accessible, to show the benefit of challenging received wisdom from the establishment sometimes, and listening to the artist, first and foremost.
