From their very first words, Adrienne Frater's original and compelling stories draw you in and her vividly realised characters stay with you long after you stop reading. Meet, in these pages, a frustrated legal clerk who goes to bed as Pauline and wakes up as Pohutakawa, a sociology professor moonlighting as a graffiti artist, a woman finding liberation in a Turkish bath house and many more, in settings ranging from small-town New Zealand to Norway. Adrienne's work has already delighted a large audience through radio broadcasts; now Hole In The Sky collects her best work in print.
As well as being widely broadcast in New Zealand, and overseas by the Commonwealth Broadcasting Corporation, Adrienne Frater'' stories have been anthologised and published in many children's journals and books and in adult literary journals. She is the author of 19 children's books; 24 children's stories wither published or broadcast; 33 adult stories either published or broadcast; two plays, and has twice been a prize winner in the Commonwealth Short Story Competition, has won three national writing competitions, and her story "The Words Never Said" was selected to represent New Zealand in the David K. Wong competition. Adrienne has a rare form of leukaemia and profits from the sale of this book will go to the New Zealand Cancer Society.
