Dive into the compelling narrative of 'We Need To Talk About Norman: New Zealand's Lost Leader', penned by acclaimed author Denis Welch. This insightful book examines the legacy of Prime Minister Norman Kirk, who governed for just 21 months yet left an indelible mark on the political landscape of New Zealand. Unlike contemporary leaders, Kirk championed the notion of a state harnessed for the greater good, positioning himself against the rise of neoliberalism that has contributed to growing inequality and societal discontent in our times. Explore the profound ideas that Kirk espoused, including his vision of a fair society where every individual has 'someone to love, somewhere to live, somewhere to work, and something to hope for'. This vital text serves as a guiding reference for today's political climate, urging a return to principles centered on public service rather than profit. With 168 pages of dynamic insight and reflection, Denis Welch recovers the essence of Kirk's leadership, advocating for a government with moral integrity and purpose. Perfect for readers interested in New Zealand politics, leadership studies, and themes of social justice, this book is more than a biography; it's a call to action for a balanced, equitable society. 'We Need To Talk About Norman' is available in a quality paperback edition (152 x 229 mm), making it an excellent addition to your collection of political literature.

Author: Denis Welch Publisher: Quentin Wilson Publishing
Why do we need to talk about Norman? Because although Norman Kirk was prime minister for barely 21 months some 50 years ago, he still speaks to us. His belief in the state as a force for good and his style of leadership could and should be powerful guides for politics in the 21st century. Kirk was not a supporter of the neoliberalist ideology that has given us widening inequality, rising poverty and the virtual obliteration from public debate and policy-making of the workers who create this country’s wealth. His idea of a healthy country was, famously, one whose citizens could realistically expect to find “someone to love, somewhere to live, somewhere to work and something to hope for”. But the social contract central to politics in his day has been broken, and state and society are now run almost exclusively on business lines. This book, by veteran journalist and political commentator Denis Welch, is aimed at recovering what Norman Kirk stood for – a sense of government with a clear moral purpose, in which there is daylight between public service and the commercial world.

Very nice pillowcases
Color: Haze Blue, Size: 2 Pack Standard(20"X 26")
Very pretty pillowcases. I washed them in cold water and dried them on low before using. They came out a little wrinkly but smoothed out on the pillow. The fabric is shiny and rich looking. It's not hot yet, here in Texas, but I am anticipating the coolness of these pillowcases to feel very nice. I appreciate the envelope closure. It gives it a finished look. There was no odd odor. They feel good like they'll last for a long time. I am a satisfied customer.

Body pillow covers
Color: White, Size: Body(20"X 54")
I ordered the body pillow covers. They fit my pillow perfectly and the fabric is smooth and silky, but I did not find them cooling.

Cooling King-Size Pillows (used on a Queen pillows to tuck the extra in)
Color: Navy Blue, Size: 2 Pack King(20"X 36"), Color: Navy Blue, Size: 2 Pack King(20"X 36")
🛏️ Product Review: Cooling King-Size Pillows (used on a Queen bed)
⭐ The Good
• These are king-size pillows, which I actually love on a queen bed because I can tuck the ends into the fabric.
• The fabric feels slick and cool, but you don’t slip off of it.
• They feel cold to the touch right out of the package (which is wild).
• I sleep extremely hot and even run fevers at night due to a medical condition (literally 101–102° sometimes), and these pillows still stay cool where I lay my head.
• I’ve honestly never slept this well in my life.
• For the price, you cannot beat them, and they go on sale often.
• These beat any high-end version I’ve tried.
• If you sleep normal-temp and not lava-hot like me, you’re going to be VERY comfortable with these.
⚠️ The Bad
• The fabric does show crease lines.
• If wrinkles bother you, this might annoy you (doesn’t bother me personally).
🔧 What I’d Change / Tips for Care
• Don’t use fabric softener — it clogs the cooling fabric and ruins how it works.
• Wash with unscented detergent + a little vinegar.
• Dry on low heat only (do NOT dry on high if you want the fabric to keep working long-term).
✅ Final Thoughts
I will literally never not own these again.
If you sleep hot, night-sweat, or just want a pillow that actually stays cool — these are it.
10/10 recommend.

Love it but it stains
Color: Haze Blue, Size: 2 Pack Standard(20"X 26")
I love these but had to knock some stars down for a single reason. They are soft, the material is somehow both substantial and airy at the same time, and a smooth, silky (not satin), cozy texture. The color was exactly as pictured. The envelope style works great to keep my pillows covered. The fabric lays perfectly. I love sleeping on this pillow case.
Took two stars off because every single atom of oil on my face stained it immediately and won't come out in the wash. Its not subtle. You can see anywhere my face has been, forever. I don't have some incredibly oily face or hair, I've never had this happen to another pillow case in my life.
