"Up-to-the-minute reportage on our fraught zeitgeist, conveyed with vitality and satirical humour." - Hugh MajorRanging from an individual's birth to the death of the planet, this urgent collection reflects back to us the perilous state of our world. Written by a fed up boomer determined to call out our collective stupidity, Out of the way world is simultaneously justifiably cynical, cavalierly mocking and bitingly realistic.Picture humanity crammed into a gigantic kick-ass double cab ute burning through fossil fuel like there's no tomorrowour symbol of what's important- crucifix tractor Buddha furry kiwibullet dollar sign fluffy red dice -bouncing under the rear-view mirroras we drive like crazyveering right then left indifferent to the roadkill ..."Hauntingly on the nose. I love this collection. I think everyone should read it right now! Many lines bear rereading and copying for future quotation. I stopped making my list before the end and just enjoyed. It is wonderful!" - Judith Hoch"New Zealand literature has no one quite like Keith Hill. Always surprising, a genuine original." - Roger Horrocks
