Kate De GoldiKate De Goldi has published young adult novels, short fiction, and picture books. The 10 p.m. Question was awarded the New Zealand Post Book Award in both the young adult and general fiction categories. About the novel, she says, "I wante to write a book that explored profound personal difficulty amid the chaos of ordinary life, a book about sadness and loss and about fat, whiskey-swilling aunts, swimming pool phobia, exotic cakes, delinquent brothers, bird species, childish parents, cricket, bad-tempered sisters, cartoons, secret languages, pets with funny names. . . . I wanted to write about the complexity and hilarity in the everyday business of being human." Kate De Goldi lives in Wellington, New Zealand. Read More Read Less
