Three book stories in New Zealand Herald this morning

Unusually book stories feature strongly in the New Zealand today.

First up there is the above story about the winning books announced last night at the NZ Post Book Awards dinner.

Then a story headed "Eccentric, soulful Mahy given public farewell". This story, not online, includes two wonderful photographs.

Followed by "$3M facelift for flagship store" which tells of the makeover happening at Whitcoulls flagship store on the corner of Queen and Victoria streets, to be completed in time for Christmas trade.
