Beansprout lives alone in the southernmost part of South Westland, a day's tramp away from his closest neighbours; Rex is a lighthouse keeper; Bill's home of the past 38 years has been a 1929 Dodge truck.
These and nine other New Zealanders who have chosen to live by themselves are the subject of this unusual book. Through their own words, assembled from numerous interviews with the author, we discover why they have withdrawn from the mainstream to live efficient, simple, self-contained lives.
Over 130 evocative photographs of the people themselves, the places they inhabit, and the fascinating minutiae of their lives draw the reader directly into their private worlds.
