Aspiring
Massey University Press 2020 Paperback, 200pp. Fifteen-year-old Ricky lives in Aspiring, a town that’s growing at an alarming rate. Ricky’s growing, too — 6’7”, and taller every day. But he’s stuck in a student, uncommitted basketballer, and puzzled son, burdened by his family’s sadness. And who’s the weird guy in town with a chauffeur and half a Cadillac? What about the bits of story that invade his head? Uncertain what’s real — and who he is — Ricky can’t stop sifting for clues. He has no idea how things will end up . With sunlight, verve and humour, award-winning writer Damien Wilkins brings us a beguiling boy who’s trying to make sense of it all. Owner's name on half title. (ISBN: 9780995122949). Good.

The Fainter
Victoria University Press 2006 Paperback, 348pp. An emotionally charged comedy of manners - supremely elegant and funny but also with the power to shake the reader's feelings. Luke is a young diplomat on his first overseas posting. He's in New York, preparing for the 50th anniversary of the United Nations. His photo has appeared in the New York Times. He has a knack for success. Then he witnesses a crime, the fallout from which threatens everything. His fainting spells return and he finds himself back in New Zealand, living on his sister's farm, caught up in another difficulty altogether, and involved in the life of a community whose personalities and rules of conduct he finds as bewitching and dizzying as anything experienced at the frontline of international diplomacy. By the end of his time there - which takes the reader only halfway through this novel - Luke has been asked the most testing questions about himself. In the second part of the book, these questions return with a new and surprising urgency. THE FAINTER is a superb novel, beautifully written, bracingly funny, rich with cutting insight and cool compassion. (ISBN: 9780864735300). Very Good.
