Available now for pre-order — this is the work of photographer Derk Schoemaker. More than just a collection of photographs, it contains Derk's musings on the significance of community, of the halls and meeting places within them. It's a spiritual journey through a New Zealand that progress has largely bypassed, a countryside littered with hundreds of small communities that were once the heart and the soul of our country. Derk says of his work, "It's a kind of meditation. It's not something you do, it's something you be." With more than 290 full-colour pages (some images in B&W) on premium paper, this is a book that will take you places.
