Download or read book Russian Dolls written by Bronwyn Tate and published by Otago University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russian Dolls is a novel with a large framework - generations of the same New Zealand family back to 1868, a woman of today uncovering the tale of her maiden great aunt and a soldier in World War I. In the process she finds other family stories against which her own experience since she left home stormily at the age of seventeen reverberates. The landscape is as important in this novel as the people, taking the reader from a quiet rural valley to the trenches of war-torn Europe, and closing on a Nelson beach where the sea crept in and out across the sand flats and the line between sea and sky is invisible.
Book Synopsis Cheese and Other Stories by : Deryck Whittaker
Download or read book Cheese and Other Stories written by Deryck Whittaker and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cheese! The smiley face we accept as a universal sign of happiness belies the twists and downturns of not-quite-everyday life. Through these witty, visceral short stories, Deryck Whittaker takes us on a bittersweet journey across the globe, introducing a set of characters at odds with themselves and the times. In locations as disparate as Norway, Mali and Argentina, the jungle of the art world, the good are generally rewarded, while the boorish and greedy receive their comeuppance. Sometimes cautionary, often hilarious, the stories may end (or begin) with murder, indulge in love and lust, or describe in exquisite detail moments of apparent ordinariness. Throughout Cheese and Other Stories Whittaker’s elegant wordplay and acute observations of the human condition are superb.
