Jenny Green Teeth and other Short Stories is a 2003 collection of short stories by New Zealand-born British scholar and poet Joel Hayward. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] It was Hayward's first published book of fiction and his fifth book in general.
Joel Hayward's first book of fiction is a collection of short stories that draw attention to the ideas of injustice and redemption.
The Evening Standard wrote: ""Superb. ... Deep, brooding and intense. ... This is storytelling, and New Zealand fiction, at its best." [7]
Southern Ocean Review said that, "This is a stunning book of short stories, for their sheer variety and depth, and also strength of language. The 'fable' aspect of the title story is compelling and real, not that I will give away any of the plot here! 'My Own Grave,' about the Terrace End Cemetery is scary. It is strange that dead people are treated as so real, but that is the stuff of exciting storytelling. Hayward writes with an eye to truth and justice and historical accuracy. It is up to us to know what to do with writing as superb as this. Can we learn?” [8]
In 2018, an Arabic translation of this collection was published as: جيني ذات الأسنان الخضراء (Amman: Dar Al-Shorouk, 2018). [9] [10]
The Green Hills of Earth is a collection of science fiction short stories by American writer Robert A. Heinlein, published in 1951, including short stories published as early as 1941.

New Zealand literature is literature, both oral and written, produced by the people of New Zealand. It often deals with New Zealand themes, people or places, is written predominantly in New Zealand English, and features Māori culture and the use of the Māori language. Before the arrival and settlement of Europeans in New Zealand in the 19th century, Māori culture had a strong oral tradition. Early European settlers wrote about their experiences travelling and exploring New Zealand. The concept of a "New Zealand literature", as distinct from English literature, did not originate until the 20th century, when authors began exploring themes of landscape, isolation, and the emerging New Zealand national identity. Māori writers became more prominent in the latter half of the 20th century, and Māori language and culture have become an increasingly important part of New Zealand literature.
Witi Tame Ihimaera-Smiler is a New Zealand author.

After his early works he took a ten-year break from writing, during which he focused on editing an anthology of Māori writing in English.
