In these 14 magnificent new stories from a New Zealand master, Vincent O’Sullivan exhibits a shrewd understanding that pierces to the heart of what it means to be human. O’Sullivan can mock, satirize, and laugh, but he also finds dignity in unexpected places. He is interested in the art of living and in the borderland where truth and lies meet, both in life and in fiction itself.

Vincent O’Sullivan is former professor of English at Victoria University of Wellington and at the University of Waikato. He is the author of the novels Believers to the Bright Coast and Let the River Stand, which won a Montana New Zealand Book Award; the poetry collections Blame Vermeer, Further Convictions Pending: Poems 1999–2008, Lucky Table, and Seeing You Asked; and Long Journey to the Border, a biography of John Mulgan. He is the coeditor of The Collected Letters of Katherine Mansfield, and he has edited several major anthologies. He is the current poet laureate of New Zealand.
