Up-to-the-minute reportage on our fraught zeitgeist, conveyed with vitality and satirical humour. - Hugh Major
Ranging from an individual's birth to the death of the planet, this urgent collection reflects back to us the perilous state of our world. Written by a fed up boomer determined to call out our collective stupidity, Out of the way world is simultaneously justifiably cynical, cavalierly mocking and bitingly realistic.
Picture humanity crammed into
a gigantic kick-ass double cab ute
burning through fossil fuel
like there's no tomorrow
our symbol of what's important
- crucifix tractor Buddha furry kiwi
bullet dollar sign fluffy red dice -
bouncing under the rear-view mirror
as we drive like crazy
veering right then left
indifferent to the roadkill ...
Hauntingly on the nose. I love this collection. I think everyone should read it right now! Many lines bear rereading and copying for future quotation. I stopped making my list before the end and just enjoyed. It is wonderful! - Judith Hoch
New Zealand literature has no one quite like Keith Hill. Always surprising, a genuine original. - Roger Horrocks
