Letter of the week: July 28

In recognition of the importance of readers' contributions to the letters page, the newspaper each week selects a Letter of the Week, with a book prize courtesy of Longacre Press. This week's winner is Devon Miller, of Wanaka, for his "To The Point" letter about water ownership. He receives a copy of Peaches for Monsieur le Cure (Random House), by Joanne Harris. Devon's letter was published on Tuesday.

My body is about 90% water. Will I have to give it back?
