Summary

A novel is a marriage. A short story a love affair. 
Prominent authors have described short stories as the most disciplined and difficult form of prose writing. 
Bronwyn Elsmore’s collection These Islands Here – Short Stories of the South Pacific, includes 32 fictional tales that present the varied facets of living in this part of the world. Most have been published previously, several have won short story competitions. 
Reviewers say: "the author has mastered the art of the short story"; "they all have one common factor – they are each beautifully crafted". “The 32 stories in this book are divided into decades, each time period with its own helpful introduction. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll learn more about the recent histories of Aotearoa/New Zealand.”
