But what begins as a journalistic quest to understand the science takes an abrupt and introspective turn following the death of her brother.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIn the midst of grief, Hura works through science, pūrākau, poetry and back again. Seeking to understand climate change in relation to whenua and people, she asks: how should we respond to what has been lost? Her many-sided essays explore environmental degradation, social disconnection and Indigenous reclamation, insisting that any meaningful response must be grounded in Te Tiriti and anti-colonialism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eSlowing the Sun\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis a karanga to those who have passed on, as well as to the living, to hold on to ancestral knowledge for future generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003ePaperback, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e240 pages, 16 x 23 cm, published April 2025\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Frances Nation ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51374532657316,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2234\/8579\/files\/the_good_economy-Photoroom_1.jpg?v=1780714184","url":"https:\/\/francesnation.co.nz\/products\/slowing-the-sun-by-nadine-hura","provider":"Frances Nation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
