Members of the Te Herenga Waka Victoria University of Wellington community won six of the eight annual awards at the 2021 Ockham New Zealand Book Awards last night.
Five of the winners are alumni of the University’s renowned International Institute of Modern Letters (IIML) Creative Writing Master’s programme, while the sixth is an emeritus professor in the University’s English programme.
Three of the winning books were published by Victoria University Press (VUP).
“To have five winning graduates from the International Institute of Modern Letters indicates that our reputation as the best place to learn creative writing in Aotearoa New Zealand is well earned. It is truly outstanding to see our alumni leading in their chosen field,” says Professor Sarah Leggott, Dean of the University’s Wellington Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences.
