Summary

Tim Winton's classic love song to land and place, full of unforgettable characters, is now a feature film starring Garrett Hedlund, Kelly Macdonald and David Wenham.

Georgie Jutland is a mess. At 40, with her career in ruins, she finds herself stranded in White Point with a fisherman she doesn't love and two kids whose dead mother she can never replace. Leached of all confidence, she spends her days in isolated tedium and her nights in a blur of vodka self-recrimination. One morning, in the boozy pre-dawn gloom, she sees a shadow drifting up the beach below - a loner called Luther Fox, with danger in his wake.

Fabulous, compelling

This is fantastic description of Australia’s flora and forna. Of the way music can grind through us and affect our every breath and manipulate our emotions
Being the life to our pasts and the routes to our futures.
Fantastic read or should I say listen. X
