My second novel, 'The Luminaries,' is set in the New Zealand gold rushes of the 1860s, though it's not really a historical novel in the conventional sense. So far, I've been describing it as 'an astrological murder mystery.'

Mein zweiter Roman "The Luminaries" spielt in den neuseeländischen Goldgräbern der 1860er Jahre, obwohl es nicht wirklich ein historischer Roman im herkömmlichen Sinne ist. Bisher habe ich es als "ein astrologisches Mordgeheimnis" bezeichnet.

I really, really thought that it was a no-brainer in terms of being a hit. And so it does surprise that that hasn't been the manifested reception of it so far.

People were nicer to me when I was in the arts. I experienced extreme racism in small-town New Zealand. Racism which really went away when I got into the arts.

Coming from New Zealand, all the music I listen to is not made by New Zealanders. People never come to New Zealand to play a show because it's in the middle of nowhere.

Lorde

I really want to see New Zealand; it's a beautiful place.

It's fair to say that, for much of my lifetime, New Zealand certainly was a property-owning democracy and working people, ordinary people, had assets.
