Here's the stunning cover of the new UK edition of LIVING IN THE MANIOTOTO to be released by VIRAGO this week.
Linda Grant - who met Janet Frame while on a visit to New Zealand - has provided an introduction to this sophisticated and witty novel first published in 1979.
Some of the reviews:

Puts everything else that has come my way this year in the shade' - Guardian

The most original and resourceful novel I have read for a long time' - New Statesman '
Frame's novel is remarkable - full of word plays, cameo portraits and deliberate mystery' - Publishers Weekly
