Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. Jess Lunnon; Sandi Mackechnie (illustrator). 1st Edition. Very close to new copy. If you like Wellington, you'll love this gloriously illustrated celebration of one of the world's coolest and quirkiest cities. The Wellington Book celebrates all things Wellingtonian in 120 gloriously illustrated pages. The book is the brainchild of Fitzbeck Creative directors Mike Fitzsimons and Nigel Beckford. Concluding that existing tourist books did no justice to the city's creative reputation, they resolved to create something that captured the city in a way no camera ever could. They drew up a list of their favourite Wellington haunts and worked with two young illustrators, Sandi MacKechnie and Jess Lunnon, to bring their vision to life. Each picture was painstakingly built up in layers over five months with all four contributing ideas and elements. The result is a visual feast that is colourful, quirky, funky and mildy educational. The book captures the real Wellington - from the hardy dog walkers of Lyall Bay to tooting in the Mt Vic tunnel, hair-raising landings at the airport and glorious summer days on Oriental Parade. The book is designed to appeal to locals and visitors alike and would make a great gift.

Paperback. Zustand: New. I have a growing number of scars. A three-inch horizontal scar across the stomach, very tidy. Two more small ones either side of the rib cage and now one on the hand and arm to deal with a Viking inheritance. I look at them in the mirror. I hope they don't fade away completely. They are my body art. * My favourite poet with a ponytail greets me warmly at the launch of his latest book of poems. Michael, he says, I thought you were dead. * Now the stars are burning brightly. I am an explorer of a world beyond the letterbox. By the time I get to Nelson I will be singing again. The heart asks only for more. Michael Fitzsimons gets the cancer news no one wants to hear and finds fear and uncertainty have taken up residence in his house, muting joy and putting the world as he knows it on hold. But in time he discovers that while his life might look like a shipwreck, there's a lifeboat waiting to take him away to a new place, where the most ordinary things gleam with their own extravagance and sorrow slowly gives way to moments of praise. To read Michael, I thought you were dead is to take up an oar and row the same boat a while - a ride not to be missed.
