NGAIO MARSH - HER LIFE IN CRIME

The Bookman notes that Joanne Drayton's superb book on Ngaio Marsh, published here in New Zealand to much acclaim last year, is being published in the UK today, 3 September 2009.

Nice cover.

Drayton, an appealing speaker, has been a favourite of the Festival and lecture circuit since publication in NZ.

Writers Festival.
