Author: Ted Dawe
Published by: Prentice Hall New Zealand
DoP - Oct 2007, Auckland
72pp
In this exciting new book of short stories, Ted Dawe has created quite distinct narrators for each story, each one telling the story in their own characteristic voice. In showing how a story is influenced by ‘voice’, students will understand something about the writing process. In the Preface, Ted Dawe talks about his early life and how it influenced the way he tells stories, and where his ideas come from. In the author’s comment after each story, Ted explains how the story came about and offers suggestions on how students could write their own stories. A Teacher’s Guide CD, is available for purchase. It contains curriculum-related activities and suggested answers, a section on drafting a short story as well as two extra short stories for classroom use. Students can also listen to Ted Dawe reading his comments on each story.

Collected Stories of Katherine Mansfield order quantity

NZ$ 30.00 each
Paperback
Author: Katherine Mansfield
Published by: Penguin Books Ltd
Katherine Mansfield's clear, sparkling and perceptive short stories revolutionized the genre, and this collection represents the whole range of her writing. Moving, resonant, full of light and colour, they range from short sharp studies to longer, richer tales, encompassing her three major volumes "Bliss", "The Garden Party" and "In a German Pension", and fifteen tantalizing fragments of unfinished stories published after her tragic death, including "Honesty", an intriguing tale of two bachelors, and "The Doves' Nest", an exquisite story of a widowed mother and her daughter in the Riviera who receive a mysterious gentleman caller. Graceful, delicate and quietly devastating, they observe apparently trivial incidents to create sensitive, often painful revelations of her characters' inner lives.
