Description

A brilliant collection of personal essays from a quietly subversive writer. 'A work written with brio, Someone's Wife is hilarious and devastating, a sliver of New Zealand culture and history told through a single vibrant life and its entanglements with others. Slouching towards Aotearoa, perhaps Burgess is our Didion, albeit less aloof, more gregarious and with better jokes.' Emma Gattey, Landfall
