1:10 At The Movies:
Woody Allen's new film shows that when you meet tall dark
strangers, they often come with baggage.

2:35 Think of Auckland's Waterfront and books aren't the
first things that spring to mind. But a little shipping container on Te Wero
Island has been turned into a temporary outdoor library, and passersby are

though, in an area more associated with bars, restaurants and rugby world cup
launches. Justin Gregory talks to project manager Marieke Numan and asks her
why books, why here?

Giselle Promise Iradukunda whose stories are included in a new book of fiction
