Transported Jones, Tim A well-known poet pursues his elusive muse; a Kiwi makes himself indispensable in Oz; a revolutionary fast-food franchise revs up Russia's economy; a racing-car driver is airborne; temperate Otago exports its kiwifruit worldwide; a Frenchman called Foucault puts in the hard yards at an antipodean dairy farm. Jones has written a refreshing collection of short stories using a lively mix of genres. He takes readers on flights of fancy, transports of delight, and occasional trips of nostalgia. Some of the stories are unique ways of looking at the everyday and ordinary, others take us out of this world. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Tim Jones' Transported is a pleasant surprise. None of the tales have that kind of super-seriousness about them that's typical of NZ short stories. Instead, they're an intriguing mix of tongue-in-cheek, subtle humour, history turned inside out, and sci-fi." - Mike Crowl, Bookstove.com | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
