eBook of Janet Frame in Her Own Words


Janet Frame In Her Own Words is finally available as an eBook, in Australia and New Zealand only, from Kobo Books.

Here is a link:

Please let me know if you have any trouble accessing a copy - there have apparently been some delays and glitches in getting this eBook up on the Kobo Books catalogue, and I see that even now this title is misclassified as 'poetry', when it should be categorised as "non-fiction/essays/memoir".

Funny how there were signs of a pirated digital edition out on the internet before even the print edition had been released late last year, and yet the legal eBook has taken more than six months to become available!

There is a saying that "a lie has gone halfway around the world before the truth has even put its boots on" and it seems that this principle also applies to illegally shared files versus legal downloads.
