Wenn man angesichts der jungen Geschichte des Landes überhaupt von einer klassischen neuseeländischen Literatur sprechen kann, so findet man diese vor allem im Bereich der Kurzgeschichte. Die Sammlung enthält sechs Short Stories, die zwischen 1963 und 1982 entstanden:J. Frame: The Reservoir - M. Gee: The Champion - W. Ihimaera: A Game of Cards - K. Hulme: Hooks and Feelers - P. Grace: Journey - C. K. Stead: A New Zealand Elegy.Texte in der Originalsprache, mit Übersetzungen schwieriger Wörter am Fuß jeder Seite, Nachwort und Literaturhinweisen.

It’s up to Rosie to find out – but will what she discovers leave her with murder on her hands? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sarah Barron.

    Die blaue Insel
    In der Nacht vom 14. auf den 15. April stieß die TITANIC mit einem Eisberg zusammen. 1.517 Menschen wurden von dem für unsinkbar gehaltenen Luxusschiff mit in die Tiefe des eiskalten Nordatlantik gerissen. Auch der Schriftsteller W.T. Stead wollte die Rekordfahrt erleben und einen Bericht darüber schreiben. Doch auch er wurde zum Opfer jener Unglücksnacht. Bereits in der folgenden Nacht erhielt plötzlich seine Tochter Estelle auf medialem Wege eine Botschaft ihres Vaters - aus dem Jenseits. Er berichtete ihr, lange bevor von amtlicher Seite aus die Vermissten und Überlebenden festgestellt werden konnten, von dem tragischen Ende seines Erdenlebens. "Ein Buch das man nicht nur durchliest und zur Seite legt. Vielmehr ein Buch, das man immer wieder zur Hand nimmt, um neue Erkenntnisse und verblüffende Tatsachen daraus zu schöpfen."
