Landfall 219 : On music (May 2010)
order quantity
NZ$ 30.00 each
Paperback
Author:
Bill Direen (editor)
Published by:
Otago University Press
New Zealand music has been made with electric guitars, European orchestral instruments, laptops, bones, voices, skin, wood, pvc piping, air, magnetic tape and digital media. For this special Music issue, the editor seeks to demonstrate the essential cultural value of music and ways of making it in New Zealand. The musical aspect of poetry - phrasing, timing and the insinuation of meaning during performance - is an aspect that creative writers might respond to. Musical aspects of prose - alliterative and rhythmical or structural devices - may carry meaning quite as much as syntactical ones. Also included are writings related to the experience of listening, and especially writing that may consider the role of NZ music and ways of making it in a wider context.

Landfall 218 : Islands (November 2009)
order quantity
NZ$ 30.00 each
Paperback
Author:
David Eggleton (editor)
Published by:
University of Otago Press
New Zealand Aotearoa is located on the map as one point of the Polynesian triangle — part of an oceanic scatter of islands. It is a nation characterised by dual settlement — Polynesian, then European — which more recently has welcomed a global diversity of new migrants and settlers.
Landfall 218
draws on our hybrid culture, celebrating a heritage of the bicultural and multicultural.
While submissions were actively sought from contributors of Maori and Pacific Island heritage, ‘Islands’ also implies communities, villages, self-contained entities, and even margins moving into the mainstream, the world currents of culture. Consequently the issue flings the net wide and keeps the definition broad.

Crest to Crest: Impressions of Canterbury Prose and Poetry

NZ$ 35.00 each

Author:
Karen Zelas (ed.) & Henry Zelas (photos)
Published by:
Wily Publications
Crest to Crest
brings together a collection of writings about Canterbury, both past and present. 78 authors are included in the selection, some of whom are known nationally and internationally for their work and others still establishing their reputations. Some of the authors are still at school while others have reached their three score years, but all have one thing in common – they love writing and have in their own way been able to capture the spirit of the province. The collection includes not only poetry and short stories, but memoirs, creative non-fiction and even articles on Canterbury’s past. Karen Zelas has divided the collection into Coast, City, Plains and High Country and each has its special character examined through the writings. Subjects range from the birth of the province and glimpses of its earlier way of life to studies of the bush, birds mountains and coast which are so much part of the Canterbury scene.

JAAM 27 Magazine: Wanderings (2009)
order quantity
NZ$ 15.00 each
Paperback
Author:
Ingrid Horrocks (ed)
Published by:
JAAM
The 2009 edition of Just Another Art Movement.
When guest editor Ingrid Horrocks called for submissions she asked particularly for ‘wandering fiction, poetry and, especially, creative non-fiction’ that featured literal wanderers and travellers, or ‘works that digress in creative ways from narrative, argument, or genre’.
In JAAM 27 she has gathered together much fine writing that wanders in expected and unexpected ways. It wanders across the globe, through memory, the past and the imagination, with a good deal of genre bending.
This issue features more creative non-fiction than ever before – Ingrid’s specific invitation to writers of that genre seems to have tapped a seam of creativity. A highlight is Martin Edmond’s ‘from The Thousand Ruby Galaxy’, which wanders blithely across the boundary between fact and fiction. Helen Lendorf weaves past diary entries and present reflections on her experiences of ‘stumbling into ...

Landfall 216 - Utopias (November 2008)
order quantity
NZ$ 30.00 each
Paperback
Author:
Tim Corballis (ed.)
Published by:
University of Otago Press
To think about utopias is to think about history - as the messy accumulation of partly realised visions of the future, rather than a sequence of events. Traces of these visions - colonial, socialist and economic projects - can be found in our cities and communities, our by-laws, and between the pages of books. Landfall 216 sets out to remind us of them. What settler made landfall without the least thought of utopia, big or small, new society or new life? Have these ideals failed, or do they live on? What price do they come at, and who ends up paying that price? This issue will take us to places that might be, or might have been: Seoul and Carterton, the suburbs of Auckland and the cities of East Germany, as well as other places that are not easily located on a map.

Landfall 215 : "Waiting for Godzone"
order quantity
NZ$ 30.00 each
Paperback
Author:
Mike Grimshaw, Paul Morris & Harry Ricketts (eds)
Published by:
University of Otago Press
Landfall 215 considers a new spiritual re-engagement from a variety of perspectives, including, what we call landscape paganism, bi-cultural wairua and hip-hop. These spiritual resources, located in our expressions of literary and artistic culture, once again have the power and potential to 'determine the uses' to which we put out nation's physical resources. Issue 215 also includes reviews by leading writers, and new poetry and fiction by a wide range of authors.
