{"product_id":"peninsula-by-sharron-came-3823q","title":"Peninsula by Sharron Came","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere's Di, waking up in hospital, feeling scrubbed raw. Ritchie and Willy, toasting their dead friend with ginger beer. Kiri, frantically searching for a lost child. Ember Eyes, with his goat and his too-powerful gun. Rachel clambering up a cliff face. Ellen and her friends bashing through the bush. Loosely centred on three generations of the Carlton family and told with restrained lyricism, Peninsula is a set of ten interwoven stories about the lives of an ordinary rural Northland farming community over decades of change. It's a community populated with stoic, fierce characters who brim with feeling, embroiled in rich and complex relationships with the land, and with one another. Though it is full of the familiar - peacocks, thistles, tramping huts - it is also a place of dreaming. Peninsula, by newcomer Sharron Came, won the 2021 Adam Foundation Prize and introduces a new voice in New Zealand fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Express","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41844509376586,"sku":"3823q","price":17.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/9101\/8826\/files\/3823q.jpg?v=1764523035","url":"https:\/\/www.bookexpress.nz\/products\/peninsula-by-sharron-came-3823q","provider":"Book Express","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
