![]() ![]() I think this is the very first Kiwi book I've ever read if I'm not mistaken. Though I'm not to halfway yet, I can already tell I really like Frame as a writer and feel she should probably be more famous outside of NZ. ![]() Thanks it's interesting hearing the thoughts on a book and its depictions of the country by someone from that country. as being correct and believable even if not commonplace, but perhaps one or two events seeming to be passed quickly over. What I can say for now though is that from my local position I found all the events, general depictions of the culture, colloquialisms, etc. I have a general low opinion of most NZ fiction - for now that comment may be taken for this book as being a leading or misleading one. I finished the book some days ago, the end of voting was a convenient time for me to start a new one and I found too that the prose flowed by pretty fast. ![]()
