New Zealand books from LeafSalon: Tributes roll in for Frame

An Angel at my Table The dominant story over the past few days has been the death of Janet Frame. As Gordon McLauchlan writes in the Herald:

The reaction among New Zealand writers to her death is one of deep sadness. Those who knew her had great affection for the quiet, pleasant woman, and boundless admiration for her genius, her amazing intellect and talent.

Rather than rehash details you can read elsewhere, here are links to key articles and tributes.

Sydney Morning Herald: Michael King (Janet Frame’s biographer)
