Emilija Kovač

The collection consists of poems written in prose, divided into seven thematic units.

Explaining the choice of such an unusual title, Emilija Kovač explained that the huia is a New Zealand species of sacred bird that became extinct due to human activities, making it a metaphor for disappearing values. The title of the collection is also a tribute to endangered nature, whose dignity has been ruthlessly stripped in the modern world.
