The author of 'MEAN' and 'Hot Bible!' spins 16 new yarns. It's literary fiction, told by bad buggers. The theme of Spitshine is comparable to the mission of journalists: to 'Afflict the comfortable; comfort the afflicted.' Early reviews of 'Spitshine' responded to the book thus: 16 short stories from a writer considered one of the most original story writers of his generation in New Zealand. It is a generous selection of work: smart, wry, humorous and very stylish. - Patricia Prime, Takahe 86 Heartbreaking and heartwarming. Like in his previous collection 'Mean, ' Botur uses authentic street language and slang to perfectly portray real life. - Rebekah Fraser, NZ Booklovers
