I think we should go into the jungle
BARBARA ANDERSON
Here is an outstanding new talent in New Zealand fiction. Barbara Anderson's stories range widely in time and place, and are distinguished by a sharp sense of how people actually deal with one another. They record the civilised places where most of us live, but also show the jungles which tempt and beckon just at the edge of vision.

VIRGINIA WERE
In her first book of poems and stories, Virginia Were explores the beguiling notion of life as a tourist trip. Here the tours are not just of exotic places (Levuka and Delhi, Blackball and Invercargill) but of childhood and memory. A sparkling collection.

DIESEL MYSTIC
Gregory O'Brien
Gregory O'Brien's first novel is an astonishing picture of small- town New Zealand seen through the innocent eyes of a 17-year-old narrator. He meets a whisky marmalade priest, a levitating bride, an entire
corps de ballet
afloat — but briefly — on the Northern Wairoa River, and from time to time a woman of fantasy and fancy. Illustrated by the author,
Diesel Mystic
is funny and sad, always unexpected, surprisingly familiar.
