Hi Mary-Anne! Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the correction! That was a pretty big swing, and silly...I have this vauge sense of a literalism & immediacy in Kiwi culture/letters that I quite like--things are as they are, and that's enough. I am struggling to define it, though! Certainly doesn't mean no metaphors. Like: my coworkers here used to tease me about how gaga I get over rainbows--they're grace, good luck, signs of a benevolent universe, etc. Kiwis: It's just a rainbow, mate. But this probably just because you have so many of them :)
Great read. Love arpeggios through generations!!! But, have to correct one inaccuracy. mate, kiwis love metaphors.
