Ephemera and Ursa: novelist Tina Shaw

The world has shut down and time is divided into the good old days of Pre-Crash, and now, post crash. Electricity's cut off, there's no broadband and medicine is in very short supply. This is the world of Ephemera, where Tina Shaw has set her latest novel. It came out round the time the corona virus started to wreak havoc here and internationally. Tina Shaw has also just been announced a finalist for the New Zealand Book Awards for Children & Young Adults for her Young Adult novel Ursa.
