43. Les âmes Brisées - Alan Duff
    http://www.fluctuat.net/livres/chroniques01/alanduff.htm
    
    Extractions: Parle-t-on assez des maoris ? Non. En parlerait-on davantage si l'on "savait" ? Non, c'est aux antipodes de notre belle France que ça se passe, ça nous regarde pas… donc. Pourtant, pour tous les apôtres du réel, les soucieux du social et de l'ethnique, il y a là un sujet de choix. Alan Duff a écrit un world novel comme d'autres font de la world music , en donnant à un son "authentique" des arrangements "modernes" et "occidentaux". En bref, voilà un roman "réaliste", ancré dans une réalité contemporaine, qui pose des questions "culturelles" et parle de cultures que l'on serait bien en peine aujourd'hui de préserver n'était le regain pour tout ce qui ressort de "l' identitaire". En bref, un roman sur la "banlieue" là où il n'y pas de banlieue.

    Extractions: The Books in Homes Programme was inspired by Alan Duff who, with the help of Christine Fernyhough, developed the idea after realising that failures in adult life often stem from childhoods spent in bookless homes. The philosophy behind the programme is simple - to break the cycle of 'booklessness'. Kids who can't read become adults who can't communicate and that's a serious disadvantage in a world that operates on the written word. The schools are selected from areas where the children are most likely to come from bookless homes. The Ministry of Education allocates schools a decile rating of between 1 and 10, according to the socio-economic status of the community in which a school is based. Books in Homes focuses on lower decile schools. Why? Because over half the parents in decile 1 catchments are without a school qualification. Furthermore, 42 percent of parents in decile 1 catchments received income support in the year preceding the 1996 Census, compared to just 7 percent for decile 10 catchment areas. Quite simply, the children from these schools are most likely to come from bookless homes. Alan's self-help philosophy is reflected by the fact that each school joins in a financial partnership with their sponsors to fund their books. The books are selected by the children themselves and are theirs to take home and keep. Each book has a sticky label which has the child's name in it as well as the name of the school and sponsor who have given the book.

    Extractions: Am Tag als die erste Gerichtsverhandlung gegen den jüngsten Sohn stattfindet, schafft es außer seiner kleinen Schwester keines der Familienmitglieder im Gerichtssaal anwesend zu sein. Beth, die Mutter kriegt es einfach nicht geregelt so bald aus dem Bett zu kommen. Außerdem war am Abend zuvor Jake, ihr Ehemann wiedereinmal so sturzbetrunken, daß er ihr Gesicht grün und blau geschlagen hat. Diesen Schaden kann sie vor dem Badezimmerspiegel auch mit größtem Aufwand nicht beseitigen. Beth versucht nach Kräften die Familie zusammenzuhalten, doch immer wieder kommt ihr und Jake der Alkohol zwischen die besten Vorsätze. Die beiden sind mit der Erziehung ihrer Kinder restlos überfordert, haben sie doch genug mit ihren eigenen Problemen zu tun. Arbeit zu suchen lohnt nicht, da die staatliche Unterstützung höher ist und so dämmern sie dumpf in ihrem Maori- Ghetto vor sich hin. "Wir wachen einfach jeden Tag auf und nehmen was eben kommt. Was, wenn man´s bedenkt, nicht gerade viel ist."

    Extractions: This week, a lively conversation with the forthright New Zealand author Alan Duff . Famous of course for his first novel Once Were Warriors, he has since written two more books- What Becomes of the Broken Hearted which has also been made into a film and his latest, Both Sides of the Moon. He spoke to Ramona Koval at a sell-out session of the recent Sydney Writers Festival before an audience that was at once enthralled and appalled, as you will hear.

    Extractions: ALAN DUFF's first novel, ONCE WERE WARRIORS, which was made into a highly successful film, was about the difficulties experienced by Maoris, as the inheritors of a warrior culture, in a society in which the traditional skills and values of the warrior have no place - except perhaps on the rugby ground or in the pub.

57. Alan Duff: An Interview With The Author Of Once Were Warriors
    alan duff, an interview with the New Zealand author of Once Were Warriors,One Night Out Stealing and now, What Becomes of the BrokenHearted?  
    http://members.optusnet.com.au/~waldrenm/duff.html
    
    Extractions: An interview with the author of Once Were Warriors IT PROBABLY WASN'T THE BEST TIME TO CALL - the plumber was fitting a new dishwasher, the sugar and coffee were AWOL, he was rushing to finish a film-script and pack for an afternoon trip north ... and then the fax had spurted out A heavy, legalistic threat from an American conglomerate. Mild agitation became serious affront. Talk about tirades (and I would, if every word hadn't been so enjoyably slanderous). In full flight, New Zealand writer Alan Duff has a fine line in vitriol, especially when he's convinced he's been done down (and that, say people who know, is mostly). He's no one-minute wuzz in the stamina stakes either - the ALP could have used his expertise in maintaining the rage. By the time we settle around our coffees out on the lawn, he's thoroughly relishing his ire over litigation (his) at the dispersal of money from the movie Once Were Warriors . That internationally-feted film was based on the book he wrote but not on his original screenplay. It rankles him that he is not getting due credit and, even more, due reward. HIS ADDRESS IN HAVELOCK NORTH, "New Zealand's rural Toorak" one commentator told me, has bought him status in class-conscious New Zealand. On the North Island, it is sanctuary with a view. Spring-bound, the area is virtual suburban Arcadia. Neighbourhood fruit trees are in blossom, jonquils and daffodils sprout in clumps, pansies and gerberas flower beneath magnolia bushes. To the west, the vista rolls down the hill, cuts across the "village" and the nearby city of Hastings and moseys on over wide plains to snow-capped ranges. It's a lifetime removed from the gangs and violence of his novels, the violence and loss of his childhood. The tangible proof of his self-made-man philosophy.

58. OUT OF THE MIST & STEAM By Alan Duff Reviewed By Mike Crowl
    OUT OF THE MIST STEAM. by alan duff. reviewed by Mike Crowl. Two thingsused to strike me about alan duff s weekly newspaper column.  
    http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Forum/4657/book/duff.html
    
    Extractions: by Alan Duff reviewed by Mike Crowl Two things used to strike me about Alan Duff's weekly newspaper column. First, though he was passionate about his subject matter, his style lacked the sort of edge that makes the reader take notice. He seemed to write as he'd speak, without much reshaping of the words. Secondly, he was passionate week after week on the same topic: the need for the Maori people to pull themselves up out of the dust rather than waiting for anyone else to do it for them. Duff's new book is in the same vein. Though the writing is generally better than it was in the columns - there are some vivid passages, particularly in the earlier part of the book - he sometimes drifts into a shapeless mode, presenting details that made me want to skip paragraphs at a time. Do we really need to know who all the neighbours were in his childhood street? That might be of interest if they played some further part in the story. But when they're given a few sentences and then forgotten, it's like the introduction of extraneous characters into a novel. Duff is excellent in his delineation of his mother and father, a couple so contrasted that it's a puzzle to the reader as to why they ever came together. The early part of the book is worth reading for the picture he paints of his family life. We have a sense of completeness regarding the portrait of his father, but the mother, after she moves out of the family home, moves out of the book too, and we're left with little comment as to what further part she played in Duff's life. According to a photograph reproduced in this book, she was on hand when Once Were Warriors was published, but the one mention of her in the latter part of the text is when she wrote Duff a letter while he was in an English prison.
