David Eggleton - Landfall 227: Vital SignsOtago Univ Pr Paperback, 208pp. A raft of New Zealand writers and artists diagnose 'vital signs' in this volume of Landfall. From the slogan on a T-shirt in Mexico, to the moon rising over a flag in Turkey, to haunting evidence of menace and mystery in the Marlborough Sounds, Landfall 227 traverses narratives, identities, and cultures to offer vital engagement with the best and the most promising of new New Zealand writing. 'Vital signs' is a medical term that refers to the body's health and well-being, as evidenced by heart rate, respiration, reflexes, and body temperature. A suite of new paintings by Mark Braunias humorously teases out the visceral aspect of the human condition, while a portfolio of color photographs by Peter Black contemplates the healing beauty of landscape. Small crease to the cover. (ISBN: 9781877578465). Very Good. NZD 13.50 [Appr.: EURO 7.25 US$ 8.02 | £UK 6 | JP¥ 1143] Book number 1577864is offered by:
