This book explores contemporary ways of reading some important New Zealand literary works, all produced between 1910 and 1940. Interpretations of these texts have had a significant impact on New Zealanders' ideas of themselves. The author argues that interpretation is a process which can never be completed, although at any one time there will be readings that are more significant than others. To illustrate her argument, Mary Paul discusses key works by two authors: Katherine Mansfield's 'Bliss' and 'Prelude', Jane Mander's The Story of a New Zealand River , and the work of Robin Hyde, poet, novelist and journalist. She opens up ways of reading these and other writers, using a variety of approaches and encouraging a greater self-awareness in the interpretation of New Zealand literature and culture.
