Ruapehu for Breakfast 2

My second book employing Mount Ruapehu and the Tongariro-Group as images of Marriage and Marital-Life. The poetry and Kiwiana continues, but only for seventy pages or so; before turning to some stunning human portraits and poetical commentaries on prosaic quotations and nature portraits, to complete one-hundred pages or so for the book. There is annexed to the work a study of the new-wave of "emotional-intelligence" as part-n-parcel of the corporatism currently strangling world economies and creating hardship both fiscally and socially. But apart from such unpalatable topics as this - (confronting realities) - there is much of beauty and peace of mind to be found in this sequel concerning difficulties in marriage and fidelity to one's state of life, as an indelible human panacea to all social problems.
