Publisher's Summary
Bloomsbury presents Male Tears by Benjamin Myers, read by Craig Parkinson.
In Male Tears, a debut collection of stories that brings together over 15 years of work, Benjamin Myers lays bare the male psyche in all its fragility, complexity and failure, its hubris and forbidden tenderness. Farmers, fairground workers and wandering pilgrims, gruesome gamekeepers, bare-knuckle boxers and ex-cons with secret passions, the men that populate these unsettling, wild and wistful stories form a multi-faceted, era-spanning portrait of just what it means to be a man.
Critic Reviews
"One of the most interesting, restless writers of his generation." (Daily Mail)
"One of the most singular, moving and crucial voices of our times." (David Peace)
"Moving fast and deadly, the stories in Male Tears carry us from bleak farms to lonely reservoirs and snowbound woods. Benjamin Myers writes sentences with a charging pulse and the account they give of masculinity is a bloody one, stripped of romance and larded with wit." (Chris Power)
