London, centre of the British Empire and the world's greatest city, was also New Zealand's metropolis for most of that country's history; a main centre lying some 12,000 miles away from New Zealand's geographical borders. Barnes explores 'a colony and its metropolis', from Wakefield to The Wombles. By focusing on particular themes - from agricultural marketing to expatriate writers - Barnes develops a larger story about colonial and national identity.
