Welcome to the Owen Marshall Website
Owen Marshall is one of New Zealand's leading fiction writers.
"Quite simply the most able and the most successful exponent of
the short story currently writing in New Zealand"
Quoted by Michael King
"As good a short story writer as there is writing in English"
Gordon McLaughlan
"...he drives
the form and its possibilities further perhaps than any
other New Zealander
apart from the three it is necessary to think of
if one wants to place him
correctly. With Sargeson, Duggan, Frame. "
