Title: Paremata
First published: 1989
Description: "Paremata summons up with diamond-bright particularity of detail, a place, the coastal suburb north of Wellington, and a time, the summer of 1969. It is a powerful and affecting story about transition, about codes being broken, sexuality, the vulnerability and the toughness of the charged world of children. Around this world move the figures of the adults, sometimes shadily - as in the case of the mysterious Pavel - and always on the outside."--Publisher description.
