Paperback. Condizione: Good. After a family tragedy, Theodore De'Ath moves to Otago to live with his grandparents. He becomes fascinated by the Underworld, reading the Inferno, Paradise Lost and Faust. When war breaks out in Europe, unlike his peers, Theodore is not swept up with the fervour to enlist, but when conscription comes in 1916 he is obliged to join the New Zealand Division in France. Although expert on Hell in literature, it is not until confronted with the reality of war that he understands its true meaning. Soon he has to survive as a deserter, risking court martial and a death sentence. The Life of De'Ath draws on historical events: New Zealand military involvement at the Western front, anti-German sentiment during World War I, and the New Zealand soldiers who were shot for desertion between 1916 and 1918. At its heart, though, is the story of a young man going against the tide of social and family pressure, and struggling to express his feelings for Elizabeth Paterson before it's too late. 244 pages.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. 'We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep.'The separating seas in these fourteen beautiful and thought-provoking stories are variously wide, wild and deadly. They segregate islands that are both physical and metaphorical, and isolate the disparate characters that inhabit them. And yet, beneath the surface of each uniquely individual tale lies a connecting undercurrent of shared human experience.Among others: a student in Dublin hoping for love while finding himself isolated by language; a WW1 officer losing his sight on a quarantine island; an executioner who is reviled by everyone, including herself; a woman separated from her husband during Covid 19 lockdown; and a recent arrival who fights for survival during one of New Zealand's great maritime tragedies. And throughout, historical figures and their ghosts stalk the pages.Islands Ever After is a collection of short stories, spanning the 18th century to the modern day. Primarily set on isles across Ireland, Scotland and New Zealand, they explore the experiences of outsiders, immigrants, eccentrics and outcasts in search of connection, understanding and, above all, belonging.
