Piquant, frank, open, wistful, tender, funny … this personal memoir by Diane Brown is deftly ‘marbled’ throughout with social history. From carefully chosen anecdotes it slowly unfolds a vivid and compelling sense of character and the psychological dynamics within the family. My favourite photo of Mum, snapped at the beach, her sensible wedding day suit ditched for saggy togs. Here she is, laughing at Dad, as if nothing had ever hurt her. Many readers will recognise the New Zealand so vividly portrayed here, as Brown marshals deeply personal events and childhood memories in a delightfully astute, understated poetic form.

Good quality and price
Cheaper than autozone, and it arrives to my front door. Very easy to install, since I am not familiar doing very many things to my car, but youtube showed me, and 2 minutes later, it was done.

Looks exactly like the original car filter, but for a lot less than from the car dealership
Looks as good as the OEM filter and at a better price than at the car dealership. Hopefully it should do the filtering job.
