Abstract

Roderick Finlayson was a member of the generation that is usually viewed (and viewed itself) as the makers of modern New Zealand literature, the generation of Frank Sargeson, Allen Curnow, Denis Glover, Charles Brasch, and A. R. D. Fairburn, among others. In some ways Finlayson’s career paralleled Sargeson’s, and certainly he was second only to Sargeson in his generation as a writer of short fiction.
