- John_Guthrie_(novelist) abstract "John Guthrie (1905 – 1955), real name John Brodie, was a New Zealand journalist and novelist from New Plymouth who moved to London in 1938. He wrote several novels about New Zealand and New Plymouth.He was born in New Plymouth and educated at New Plymouth Boys' High School, and at Canterbury University College (BA and Diploma in Journalism). While studying at Canterbury College aged 26 he broke a leg in a rugby accident which subsequently had to be amputated; he had been regarded as a potential All Black to represent New Zealand.He wrote his first novel The Little Country about pioneer life in 19th century New Plymouth while recovering in bed from the rugby accident. With Paradise Bay they are regarded as New Zealand classics, with the English critic Marghanita Laski saying that Paradise Bay was \"an excellent book and a potential New Zealand classic if ever there was one\". However Paradise Bay has been called \"thin and contrived\" by comparison with his first novel. The novel The Seekers was filmed in 1954 as The Seekers. As with The Little Country the novels were controversial in New Plymouth as some locals thought they recognised themselves in the novels.He moved to London in 1938, and in World War II was an Intelligence Officer in the Royal Air Force. Postwar in London he edited Books of Today then was assistant editor of World’s Press News.He married his American wife Elinor Roddam in 1952, they had no children. While returning from a 10 weeks visit to New Zealand he died at sea from coronary thrombosis on the liner Rangitikei after departure from Southampton. The Times said (inaccurately, as he was returning from New Zealand): Mr John Brodie, a New Zealand novelist who wrote under the pen name \"John Guthrie\" died at sea suddenly on Monday evening at the age of 49 while returning to New Zealand.".
