The SLANZA Auckland Christmas meeting is hosting Pasifika poet Selina Marsh who is both a poet and scholar. Selina is the first person of Pacific descent to graduate with a PhD in English from the University of Auckland, where she currently lectures in Māori and Pacific literary studies. Selina established Pasifika Poetry, an online hub that celebrates the poetry of tagata o te moana nui, the peoples of the Pacific. Selina’s first collection of poems, Fast Talking PI, was published by Auckland University Press in 2009, winning the 2010 NZSA Jessie Mackay Best First Book Award for Poetry.
