A Distraction of Opposites Author: Sandra Arnold isbn: 9780908790425

Alan Broadbent was looking at her intently. ‘And what do you write, Catherine Moss?’ ‘Poetry. And I paint’ ‘Published anything?’ She grimaced. He laughed sympathetically. ‘Well in the literary world its more a case of who you know than how much talent you might have. I’d deem it a privilege if you’d allow me to take a look at your poems’

Flattered by the attention of a major literary figure, Catherine soon learns that all is not what it seems in New Zealand’s world of ‘letters’, as she is drawn deeper and deeper into Broadbent’s sinister web of paternalistic fantasies.

A Distraction of Opposites is a compelling new work. Moving between dram and reality, it skilfully ecplores the abuse of male literary power and should be read by all aspiring writers, expecially women.
