"This collection of stories reveals Frame to be, chiefly, one of the great authors of recent times; an incredibly imaginative storyteller whose play with language and description is fuelled by her insight into the nature of the world."

The Daylight and the Dust: Selected Short Stories by Janet Frame
(Vintage Australia 2010; Virago UK 2010)
The reviewer also takes a swipe at those who speculate about Janet Frame's personal life:
"There is much to love about this collection and it would be a shame for Frame's talent to get lost under the mythology..."
This collection of stories was published in 2009 in the USA as PRIZES: SELECTED STORIES and the paperback edition of PRIZES has just been released this December 2010.
Still available from Vintage (Random House NZ) as PRIZES: Selected Short Stories (2009).
