Prologue
That green evening
The blind impress
The other side of the tracks
Of the woe that is in marriage
Manawatu
Fires of no return
Fugue
Shots in the dark
Recaptured
No quarter
Escape
Starting over
Beyond the call of duty
Talking to jack hansen
Passing strange
Still life with lading lists
The remaining pieces
Guilt and shame
Death's secretary
Stories happen
Time and space
The enigma of anteriority
First things first
Braided rivers
Against the grain
No direction home
Crossing cook strait
Metaphor of the table
Destruction and hope
Distance looks our way
The illusion of corsica
Return to the manawatu
Burned places
Revenant
Te atiawa
Symbolic landscape
Women
The road to karuna falls
Where do we come from? : what are we? : where are we going?
Taking a line for a walk
