Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 152 pages. In this richly textured collection Isa Moynihan weaves a tapestry of places a nd times, past and present. In New Zealand on a Sunday afternoon in spring the s erpent whispers fantasies of murder, cross-dressing, adultery and exotic lovers. On a summer beach a couple recognise the end of…the golden weather. On another beach a child watches a drowned girl being carried ashore. A country grandmother fights back against family and other threats to independence. A mother is tempt ed to destroy her adult daughter's image of Daddy dearest, and in 'True Colours' an artist and his child paint their pictures of separate realities. In our Sout h Pacific playground a writer looks for more quirky angles and a perfectionist l ooks for more malleable raw material for his ideal woman. Farther afield on a cr uise in the Greek Islands a New Zealand family is almost collected by a strange 'family' from a yacht, and in Finland a New Zealand writer tries to turn straw i nto gold. In 1957 in upcountry Malaya a Thai woman offers a spell for lonely wiv es, and two young women, one Kiwi, one Irish, compare their colonial pasts and p lan for the future. In contemporary Singapore an expatriate finds herself out of place and, finally, out of time. In an imaginary world a kindly giant solves th e problem of upwardly mobile women, And in the distant future on separate planet s, men and women breed creatures for different purposes.
