Wedde Ian

Grass Catcher Wedde Ian

From early childhood in postwar Blenheim to the remote regions of Bangladesh, from an English boarding school to 1960s Auckland, and from Jordan during the civil war of 1969-70, to family homes full of children, this dazzling book traces the many shifts in Ian Wedde's life. The Grass Catcher is at once a moving personal memoir and an engaging and reflective essay on the nature of memory.
