Into the Wider World by Brian Turner

Our Price: $ 44.99 Available: 1-2 weeks

Simon Cunliffe writing in the Otago Daily Times, wrote recently in reference to Into the Wider World - a back country miscellany: 'Turner is a treasure and the book a treat. By turns lyrical, provocative, caustic, curmudgeonly, truthful, celebratory, it's a hymnal to life, to friendship, to the land upon which we live and so often take for granted, or worse, seem determined to desecrate. 'It is also a corrective, an invitation to meditate on values, morality and society. And it is, of course, skewed, as its title might suggest, by Turner's great passion, and his almost indecent eloquence in giving voice to the vast and silent landscape; he speaks here for the mountains and running streams, for rocks and forests and tussock-strewn ranges. In short, for the back country.'
