Produktinformationen zu „In the Glass Case (ePub)“
Over a quarter of a century, C. K. Stead has built up a widely accessible collection of reviews and critical essays on New Zealand literature. In the Glass Case covers a wide spectrum of New Zealand writers, who are examined from a remarkably consistent viewpoint. The title is symbolic: New Zealand books were once held in a glass-fronted bookcase at the University of Auckland library. These were considered rare, although they are now out on the open shelves. Stead's views are often controversial and provoke discussion and passionate debate from other critics. This is not only an enlightening look into New Zealand literature and C. K. Stead, it is also a very enjoyable read.
Autoren-Porträt von C. K. Stead
Poet, novelist, critic and recorder C. K. Stead was born in Auckland, New Zealand, in 1932. From the late 1950s, he began to earn an international reputation as a poet and literary critic - his book The New Poetic (1964) has sold over 100,000 copies - and, later, as a novelist. He has published more than 40 books and received numerous honours recognising his contribution to literature, including a CBE (1974), an Honorary DLitt from the University of Bristol (2001), the Creative New Zealand Michael King Fellowship (2005), the Order of New Zealand (2007) and in 2009 the Prime Minister's Award for Fiction and the Montana New Zealand Book Award (Reference and Anthology) for his Collected Poems. In 2010 he won the world's richest short story award, the Sunday Times EFG Private Bank Short Story Award worth £25,000, and his poem 'Ischaemia' won the Hippocrates Prize (open section).
