Binge reader (anything and everything but predominantly fantasy, sci-fi, thriller). Occasionally review books. Enchanted by native birds and insects (especially kākā and wētā) visiting the garden.

Absolutely. Maps, full colour, or lithographs.
Facing page (frontispiece) of Johann Wolfgang van Goethe’s “Faust”. Image shows Two men in fancy dress with the bright, oversized moon overhead, illustrating the line ‘Have you not lived this life ling enough?’ Two page spread opening of Chapter XXIII (23). Dreary Diary. Image of bodies skewered on a rapier. Full page (right) image ‘Roll thy devilish eyes wrathfully in thy head’. A woman is seen from the side walking with her hands stretched out in front of her as a male figure in fancy dress stands on hooves watching her with one hand on his hip. Two featherless bird-like creatures are sitting on a branch above them.
