“Aotearoa’s literature for rangatahi has for decades set a very high bar for excellence. To be a finalist in these awards, then, is a significant achievement.” Wise words from our MC for the night, the legendary Jase Te Patu. #NZCYA #BooksAlive

Was excited to find this battered old copy of New Worlds Quarterly at my local free Library, mainly to be able to read the early story by @mjohnharrison. Amused to see that someone had written a one word review of each story... Harrison they liked, D. M. Thomas not so much!
