About this listen

Barry Crump was one of New Zealand’s most popular authors of all time. From A Good Keen Man in 1960 through to his death in 1996, over a million copies of the 24 books he wrote were sold. He was a superb storyteller, who captured perfectly the laconic humor and the lifestyle of the rugged Kiwi outdoors man. His ability to craft a tale that is both moving and funny is superbly illustrated by the huge international success of the movie Hunt for the Wilderpeople, which is based on his book Wild Pork and Watercress.

Almost all of Barry Crump’s books are now out of print. A new volume of collected stories published in 2017 remedied that. And the five classic yarns comprising that volume are available as separate titles - A Good Keen Man, Bullock Creek, Gold and Greenstone, Puha Road, and Wild Pork and Watercress.

Perfect Short Listen

Fantastic simple story of a young government hunter taking on the bush and his work companions along the way. After watching Hunt for the Wilderpeople, I need to become more immersed in the NZ Bush. The author stuck a nice parallel between the man v nature as he fight to keep up his tallys and the personal relations he has with a range of well-suited to inept co-workers. The cherry on top is that it's read by one on the authors son keeping close to true of how the author would read it aloud himself. Loved it!

Exactly what you’d expect

Just a good story about a guy who was hired to shoot red deer in NZ as part of a campaign to control the non-native deer population. He lived a bush life in mid 20th century. A serial account of an interesting life.

Entertaining and Lively

This book has the quirky humor and the light hearted spirit that I enjoy so much about Barry Crump. It is a refreshing when you need a quick break from books with heavy plots.

So enjoyable!

I have just ordered all of Barry Crump’s books…though I am sorry to see that they are all measured in minutes. Thank you for these. It would be nice if they were concentrated into one volume though.
