Author(s): Fiona Kidman

New Zealand Literature | Literary biography

In her first volume of memoir, Fiona Kidman described her background and childhood, evoking the places she lived in and the people she knew. It finished with the publication of her first, hugely successful novel. In this sequel she takes us through the writing of over 20 more books, of her involvement in New Zealand's literary circles, her championing of writing and writers, and the significant people she has met along the way. A beautifully written, thought-provoking and important record of the last 20 years. First published June 2009.
