The book is a collection of best work initially published on the digital magazine website, e-Tangata .
As well as Pacific writing, it includes contributions from Maori and Pakeha writers on everything from politics to social issues and popular culture.
Co-editor and journalist Tapu Misa said their aim was to get mainstream New Zealanders accessing more Pacific writers and voices, and so publishing this book, titled The Best of e-Tangata was just one way to do that.
"We'd just like to do more," Ms Misa said.
