Tribute To Janet Frame
ACT New Zealand Acting Leader Ken Shirley today paid tribute to New Zealand literary giant Janet Frame, who sadly passed away after a long battle with leukaemia.
"Ms Frame had an enormous impact on New Zealand literature.
"Overcoming difficult circumstances, Ms Frame emerged as one of the greatest writers in our nation's history and her autobiography and subsequent film `Angel At My Table' did much to raise awareness of mental illness.
"Ms Frame
will remain a national treasure, and she will be sadly
missed," Mr Shirley said.
