A few months ago I announced the
launch of a new book series, ‘New Zealand Film Classics’, a sister series to
‘New Zealand Writers’. Further information about the series can be found below.
Meanwhile, I am pleased to announce that the first 5 books are now scheduled to
be published as follows.
June 2013 - Out of the Blue, by Davinia Thornley
January 2014 - In My Father's Den, by Brian McDonnell
June 2014 - Once Were Warriors, by Mandy Treagus
January 2015 - Heavenly Creatures, by Ruth Feingold
June 2015 - An Angel at My Table, by Eva Rueschmann
New Zealand Film Classics
A new series of short books (approx. 15-20,000 words each) will be
published starting next year, with each title focused on a classic New Zealand
film. The titles will be published by Kakapo Books, with promotion supported by
Intellect. As series Editor, I will be supported by NZSA’s New Zealand Studies
Council, and by Brian McDonnell (Massey University), who is acting as series
Consultant. The aim is to publish 2-3 titles a year, with NZSA members
receiving one free copy of choice. The titles proposed in series 1 and series 2
are listed below, with authors already attached to Out of the Blue, and In
My Father’s Den. Other authors will be announced soon, with expressions of
interest from potential authors welcomed, and priority given to NZSA members.
