Synopsis
Capturing the nostalgia of springtime -- picnics, dances, the drama of first love -- this gentle autobiography tells the story of Douglas Stewart's youth in a New Zealand country town, 'an almost invisible speck on the map about two hundred miles north of the great glittering metropolis of Wellington'. Brmming with mischievous humor and rejoicing of nature, Springtime in Taranaki offers us a fascinating portrait of the artist as a young man, of leaving home, and a world of innocence long past.
