Aotearoa Sunrise

This collection of 21 short stories is written in a variety of genres including realism, satire and parody. Set in New Zealand, Australia, Malaysia, Israel and India, these stories have a global reach but a common focus on humanity with its flaws and its nobility. Always, a tone of hope and optimism pervades these stories. The stories in this collection aim to entertain, engage and, hopefully, enlighten the reader. The writer’s intention is to illuminate the wide spectrum of human experience as seen through the lens of a small, bi-lingual country deep in the South Pacific and looking at the world from one of its edges.
