New Zealand month begins with a classic text: Margaret Mahy's The Catalogue of the Universe (1985).
Brenna and Joe discuss the literary prose, the need (even in the 80s) to use romance to sell YA, and the divisive reader reactions to our dual protagonists.
Plus: great families, a wild finale, and an overview of Mahy's prolific career...which weirdly never made a splash in North America.
