Description
Ever wondered what it's really like to live in a small, characterful New Zealand town? Prepare for a candid, warts-and-all journey with UK cartoonist Alex Hallatt as she peels back the layers of Lyttelton, a vibrant port community nestled in an ancient volcanic crater. This isn't a generic guide; it's an illustrated memoir, brimming with wry observations and charming sketches, revealing the unvarnished truth of life in a place Alex affectionately calls 'bloody brilliant.'
From the challenges of a post-earthquake landscape and the peculiarities of bonkers Kiwi weather to the hidden gems of its hilly streets and the incessant hum of its working port, you'll experience Lyttelton through an immigrant's eyes. Delve into its unique history, learn the local lingo (what's 'munted'?), explore the best cafes and tramps, and even discover 'Things That Might Kill You but Probably Won't.'
'Awesome local cartoonist and writer Alex Hallatt has made a little masterpiece of a book.' – Christchurch City Libraries
'Alex has captured the essence of Lyttelton.' – Gary McCormick
'It's the best book I've read about Lyttelton.' – Conan O'Brien
