Juice by Tim Winton
'A hold-your-breath adventure set in an utterly plausible, sun-hammered future, Juice will stab your conscience and break your heart. - Emma Donoghue
Survival is only the beginning.
Two fugitives, a man and a child, drive across a stony desert. As dawn breaks, they roll into an abandoned mine site. Theyre exhausted, traumatized, desperate now, and this is a forsaken place, but as a refuge its the most promising theyve seen. The child peers at the field of desolation.
The man thinks to himself, this could work. Problem is, theyre not alone . . .
So begins a searing, epic journey through a life where the challenge is not only to survive; its keeping your humanity if you do.
Juice is a stunning novel for fans of Station Eleven and The Road, from twice Booker-shortlisted author Tim Winton.
