Haka copied, pasted Utu

Fitzgerald / Haka game, Osborne / Utu ends in a draw between the two clones imagined, brilliantly, by C. Ferey;
2 stories are identical, the two heroes entered the police for the same reason very personal act uncontrollable snipers, with a rare violence, because they are torn between their Maori descent and all the folklore attached to it (not misjudge the legitimate demands of the population crushed, like others, by colonization) and their membership of a country in the right-thinking Western model and moralizing still plagued by hypocrisy and the bait of gain Rampant of the ruling class.
I thought that New Zealand was a small virtuous countries to the harmonious development model, consisting mainly of sheep farmers drinking beer talking rugby!
the bottom is in Utu Férey Maori that Merimee is the Corsican vendetta, and the style of these two authors and the manners they describe are of their time.
it is recommended to read Haka before Utu if we want to understand the whole story, including the circumstances and reasons of the death of Fitzgerald.
