About this title.

'The Dolphin and other stories' is a collection of seventeen short stories — entertaining, amusing and insightful — on a broad range of themes including life and death, travel and relationships, history and place in society amongst others. It’s a collection that offers an insight into the way the people of New Zealand — a beautiful and remote ‘down-under’ country — view the rest of the world. It includes stories of New Zealanders placed, for one reason or another, in countries as diverse as France, Italy, Germany and the United States as well as at home in New Zealand. This book is an excellent companion to the author's collection of Auckland short stories, 'Nana’s Special Day and other stories'.
