By: David Herkt Masculinity is currently being re-evaluated. Balances are changing and this reassessment is reflected by book publishing. New fiction releases, particularly, are now more often written by women and fiction book awards reflect this. Benjamin Myers, however, is a prize-winning British male writer and his work is also a part of this re-calibration, approaching the subject from an entirely different angle.
Myers work is often grounded in the natural world and his prose is bold. In The Offing, his bestselling novel, Robert Appleyard looks back on a summer when he was 16, taken in by an older woman living in a remote English bay, and given perspectives on life through learning about her past. His new collection of short stories, Male Tears, demonstrates his full range.

Agents say a sudden rush of property sales in Rotorua last month reflected efforts to get deals over the line before big changes to Government housing policy kicked in. The number of properties sold skyrocketed in March - including more than a dozen over the $1 million mark - driving the city to a new record median house price of $650,000.
The latest Real Estate Institute of New Zealand figures show the city had 114 sales last month compared to 78 in February and 82 in March last year, when New Zealand went lockdown.
