Description: Compelling and revealing, this book continues the often hectic and sometimes poignant tale of Maurice Shadbolt's life and times. As lively as his novels, this new memoir teems with the often improbable New Zealanders who have coloured Shadbolt's life as a writer: his forebears, friends, neighbours, relative, children, lovers and wives, and unruly fellow authors.
