Letter from the editor: Are we taking the opportunity to reimagine Wellington?


Ross Giblin/Stuff
Imagine if we linked the St James Theatre and the Opera House across a pedestrianised area, creating a Wellington version of Covent Garden or the Lincoln Center in New York.
Last weekend I was in Christchurch, a city I visit often because my dad lives there. I’m always struck by the cool new spaces they’re building as they reimagine the city after the devastating 2011 earthquake – and by the contrast with Wellington.
Of course, we are lucky that we didn’t have to endure the trauma that Christchurch did and, of course, there are lots of gripes down there about the length of time it’s taking to rebuild.

Herman And The Serpent


Herman And The Serpent
By Tobias Buck
Saturday morning on 19 September 2003 was a cool spring day in Wellington. It was the first day of Herman Knippenberg’s retirement and he was looking forward to a breakfast of pancakes. That was when the phone rang. It was a call from a friend in Auckland, informing him that the serial killer Charles Sobhraj had just been arrested in Nepal.
“Nunc aut nunquam,” Herman says of that day. “It was a now-or-never situation.”
