Dick Frizzell: Hastings - A Boy's Own Adventure
“If I’d been asked to vote on it, I would’ve said I’d landed at the centre of the universe.”
So writes much-loved New Zealand painter Dick Frizzell in Hastings, a charming, big-hearted memoir set in small-town New Zealand.
Both hilarious and tender, it’s an endearing love letter to his hometown and the weirdly innocent world
of the 1950s and early 1960s.
With warmth and sharp-eyed observation, Frizzell reflects on family, place and the landscapes that shaped him.
