I enjoyed this book driving from Darwin to Alice Springs in Outback Australia but feel I could have been sat in a Manhatten sky scraper and still been sucked in by its atmosphere. Tim Winton delivers yet anohter compulsive read with slightly off-centre charachters you come to feel very close to. When the last CD finished I actually pulled off the highway to look for more as I could not bear it to be over! Highly reccomended for anyone on the road and anyone with a big heart for a big tale.
An epic journey of life shared with two bustling families that stays with you long after. Even now, some five months after listening to the book on audio, I still hear the charachters in my head and smile to myself. An engrossing tale to curl up and get into - highly reccomended to anyone who enjoys the trials of family and relationships.
