Hawaiian authors are featured in Aloha ʻAina

"Aloha Aina," the Native Hawaiian edition of the Hawai'i Review, will be availab!e in September, aecording to Wes Calvert, the coordinator of student publications at the University of Hawai'i, Manoa. One of three issues being published by the Hawai'i Review, "Aloha Aina" features fiction, non-fiction, poetry, chants and one song. All the pieces are written by people of Native Hawaiian ancestry. Dellzell Chenoweth, editor-in-chief for the Aloha Aina issue said, "Great pains were taken to assure all the contributors (to "Aloha Aina") are, indeed, part Hawaiian." Not all pieces submitted for "Aloha Aina" had both Hawaiian and English language versions, Chenoweth said, but some did. "Where that was the case,"she said, "both versions were included." Three issues of Hawai'i Review went to the printers earlier this summer. The three issues will be called, respectively, "Paradise Now," "White Bread" and "Aloha Aina." The Hawai'i Review is $4 per copy or $10 for all three, Calvert said. All three volumes of the Hawai'i Review should be available in September at the Ka Leo offices on the U.H. campus.
