This collection presents ten short stories, bound together by their connection to New Zealand, whether set within its shores or following the experiences of a New Zealander abroad. Spanning past, present, and even the future (as in the story 'Good Grazing'), these tales explore a range of moods and themes, from the light-hearted to the thought-provoking. In the tradition of Shakespearean comedies, most stories here find their way to a satisfying end, though 'The Magpie' and 'Walk a Mile' venture into darker territories, offering readers food for thought. Fans of 'The Cone Man' will be delighted by the return of Norman Humbolt, now grappling with the entanglements of modern politics and social media – with unexpected results. Two of the stories, 'Good Grazing' and 'As a New Zealander Might Regard Rome', touch on contemporary social issues related to Māori culture, portraying a hopeful future with a touch of humour. At its heart, this collection is a lighthearted journey into the world as a New Zealander might see it: full of humour, insight, and occasional kernels of truth. Readers planning a trip to New Zealand may even find a glimpse of what awaits, as the real locations described are easily discoverable.
