Extraordinary Anywhere: Essays on Place from Aotearoa New ZealandEdited by Ingrid Horrocks and Cherie Lacey
Published by VUP. Available July 2016. $40.
This collection of personal essays, a first of its kind, re-imagines the idea of place for an emerging generation of readers and writers. It offers glimpses into where we are now and how that feels, and opens up the range and kinds of stories we can conceive of telling about living here. Contributors include Tony Ballantyne, Sally Blundell, Alex Calder, Annabel Cooper, Tim Corballis, Martin Edmond, Ingrid Horrocks, Lynn Jenner, Cherie Lacey, Tina Makereti, Harry Ricketts, Jack Ross, Alice Te Punga Somerville, Giovanni Tiso, Ian Wedde, Lydia Wevers, and Ashleigh Young. 'To investigate something properly we need all three: archives, dreams, memories. [...] And so the liberation of a collection like this becomes possible.'
