Volume Focus: SOME AOTEAROA FICTION WRITERS AND THEIR BANDS

Sometimes writing is not all that writers do. Here are a few Aotearoa fiction writers also involved in bands (there will be others — send us an email with your additions!). Just as the books pictured are not the only books by these authors, several of them have also been in many bands — we have just selected a sample track for each author.

Dominic Hoey — Tourettes 

Bill Direen — Builders 

Sarah Laing — The Interlopers    

Rachael King — The Cakekitchen   

Damien Wilkins — The Close Readers   

Richard von Sturmer — The Floral Clocks
