Autor/-in: Andrew McKenzie

Andrew grew up in rural Hawkes Bay on an orchard and his interest in music took him to Wellington where he lived for twelve years as a musician. He moved back to the family property to look after his mother in her later years and a publishing deal with Ford NZ for one of his songs allowed a year off work and the writing of Wester Island. This time included travel to Egypt and some of the book was written there.
