Simon Nicholson – The Xenophobe’s Guide to the Kiwis

’Taking too much care of oneself goes against the pioneering spirit.’

'Brilliant work which shows great insight into the beliefs and fables of New Zealanders in both a contemporary and historical context, in a humorous way which reflects the Kiwi ability to laugh at themselves I am sure there isn’t a New Zealander around who couldn’t recognize the traits portrayed in either themselves or people they know. I also have no doubt that in time the guide will be seen as an important historical resource – where else can you find accurate and pertinent data spanning generations of New Zealanders in just 63 pages! The authors are to be congratulated for truly encapsulating the Kiwi trait of being able to laugh at themselves. The most hilarious book I have read in ages.’
