New Zealanders take their sport seriously. Very seriously. They also take women’s sport seriously – far more so than in the UK
Prompted by an ad I heard on the radio, I looked up Whitcoull’s (one of the large bookshop chains here) top five books at the moment:
- The
- Dead Or Alive – Tom Clancy: international bestseller…er…best-sells.
- Coasters – Al Brown: Kiwi chef goes coastal, writes book.
- Rescue – Anita Shreve: internationally-renowned author writes another book.
- Greatest Moments In NZ Netball History – Michael Binum: does what it says on the tin.
Yes, you read that right.
Err - fascinating. Incidentally, I had a look at a prospect from one large book store here, and I didn't discover a single 'new' book. Made me wonder if nobody writes books any more?
