All the Way to Summer: stories of love and longing
(RHNZ Vintage)
March 2020
A collection that celebrates a long history of my storytelling; it brings together a variety of my previously published stories, as well as several that are new or previously uncollected. They are stories about love, one way and another, not always happy but always life changing.

These stories span close to a century, and we can trust entirely that Kidman’s portrayal of our country through the ages is spot on… Drama, laughter, sex and bad moments. This is the truth about love. – Catherine Robertson, Landfall
…a thing of exquisite beauty—both the physical book (that Gretchen Albrecht image! That paper stock! That stitched case binding!) and of course the stories inside. – Caroline Barron Goodreads
