Call Me Poet/Hunter: Life & Work of R.F. Brown (Illustrated and compiled by Nigel Brown) publisher: Moana Press, New Zealand, 1987 VERY SCARCE Very good softback. Minor shelf wear to cover, slight fading to spine, no inscriptions, minor marks. 121 pages, b&w illustrations and photos. 'R. F. Brown (1923-1983) was brought up on a sheep run in Central Otago, worked as a deer-culler and was later to journey repeatedly to the Urewera country of the North island. Out of these experiences much of the particular character of Brown's poetry emerged. That poetry was an essential tool in his coming to terms with life. He began writing whilst an orchardist in Tauranga and went on, though a late starter, to progressively refine his powerful style until his last years in Thames. This book is a posthumous collection compiled by one of the poet's sons, artist Nigel Brown. Illustrations, photographs and biographical notes combine with the poems to make this a rich narrative of one man's New Zealand experience' "Nigel Roderick Brown, ONZM is a New Zealand painter living in coastal Southland whose work is mainly about the history of New Zealand and its natives. As a young boy he spent much of his life growing up in a packing shed in Tauranga.".…
