      About This Book

      First published as a special issue of Robin Dudding' s literary magazine Islands (Vol. 5, No. 2, Winter 1976), Dick Seddon' s Great Dive won the 1977 New Zealand Book Award for Fiction, and was republished in The Shirt Factory and other stories by VUP in 1981. Dick Seddon' s Great Dive traces the story of a love affair through 1970s New Zealand counterculture, traveling between the poles of Bethells Beach and Port Chalmers. Parties and drugs fill daily life, while the land' s true history and the dispossession of its original owners press the story to its tragic conclusion.
