Paperback. Condition: New. HEROIN by Grace Dyas, Trade by Mark O'Halloran, The Art of Swimming by Lynda Radley, Pineapple by Phillip McMahon, I ? Alice ? I by Amy Conroy, The Big Deal edited by Una McKevitt, Oedipus Loves You by Simon Doyle and Gavin Quinn, The Year of Magical Wanking by Neil WatkinsEdited and introduced by Thom…as ConwayThis anthology comprises eight new plays by Irish playwrights premièred between the years 2006 and 2011.These playwrights ride, however, in no slipstream of the identifiably Irish play. Here, the enterprise of playwriting itself is being re-imagined. Here, above all else, is a commitment to becoming in the theatre.For all that, each play is concerned with what is unfinished business in Ireland. How astonishing, then, that these plays should revolve for the most part around identity and, in particular, sexual identity. How identity comes into play, how we open up the field of play, how we raise into collective experience the exercise of that play - the urgency in the playwriting would appear to lie precisely here.We can read from the historical moment - from a narrative emphasizing an economic bubble and its hangover - into these plays. Or we can take these playwrights at their word and observe lives lived at the contour of identities in the making. It is for us as readers, just as we have as theatre-goers - frequently scandalized, enthralled, shamed, appalled, unburdened, tickled pink - to decide.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A very close to new copy. The popularity of the fighter aircraft used in World War II is huge in New Zealand, as evidenced by the enormous crowds that turn up for events such as Warbirds over Wanaka - over 80,000 people attended the 2010 event. New Z…ealand is extremely lucky that there is a wide range of airworthy WWII-era classic fighters remaining in the country, the subject of this superb book of aviation photography. Author Gavin Conroy has had unparalleled access to New Zealand's classic fighters, and specialises in close-up air-to-air photography, which captures so much of the character and appeal of these extraordinary machines. Included in this pocket edition of the large format book, originally published in 2011, are all of the important aircraft flying in New Zealand. Included are the Supermarine Spitfire, the P-51D Mustang, the P-40 Kittyhawk, the FG-1D Corsair, the Hawker Hurricane, the P-40B Tomahawk, the Yak 3, the Lavochkin La-9, and importantly Germany's great fighter, the Focke Wulf 190. For all of the fifteen aircraft featured, there is a short, but informative text. An ideal gift for passionate warbird enthusiasts.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A very clean copy. 2.3kg for outside NZ. Fighters and Bombers follows on from Gavin Conroy's earlier book Precious Metal. Where the first book focused on WWII fighter planes that were either restored or based in New Zealand, Fighters and Bombers cont…ains WWII bombers and includes other aircraft photographed air-to-air in the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Some of the aircraft found in Fighters and Bombers are the only ones of their type flying in the world, such as the Lockheed Hudson, the only militaryconfigured Mk 1 Avo Anson, and one of only two air-worthy De Havilland Mosquitos. Two of the earliest jet fighters - the Me262 and the Gloster Meteor - are also included. Along with air-to-air photography, images of the engines, instrument panels and other key areas of the aircraft type are included. Fighters and Bombers also contains texts from more than twenty of the best WWII display pilots in the world, describing what it is like to fly these classic fighters and bombers.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Many New Zealanders do not realise that New Zealand is home to one of the most significant collections of World War One aircraft in the world. This is the work of Sir Peter Jackson's company The Vintage Aviator, who restore and build replicas and reproductions of Great War aircraft from thei…r Wairarapa base. New Zealand's leading aviation photographer, Gavin Conroy, has spent many years photographing these aircraft, and these remarkable images form the heart of this book. Most of these planes were built from just canvas and wood, whose brave pilots often took these flimsy machines up to 15,000 feet, even in winter and sometimes without parachutes. With historical text by David McDonald detailing the rapid development of these aircraft between 1914 and 1918, and representing both sides of the conflict, there are also personal accounts from the current pilots who fly them. 'Vintage Aviators' is a fascinating insight into a pivotal period of aviation history, and anyone with any interest in the early days of flying, or the Great War, will want to own this book. 'Vintage Aviators' features stunning air-to-air photography of World War 1 aircraft, all from Sir Peter Jackson's collection at The Vintage Aviator in the Wairarapa. With historical information on each aircraft type, and photos of the engines and instrument panels, this book is a fascinating insight into a pivotal period of aviation history. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
