The Turning: Stories - Tim Winton

Descriere The Turning: Stories - Tim Winton

The Turning is a masterfully crafted collection of interlinked stories from the two-time Man Booker Prize nominee and author of Dirt Music and The Riders. \nThe author of Dirt Music and The Riders captures the urgency of memory and the way an entire life can be shaped by one event from the past in this capsule of connected stories set on the coast of Western Australia. \nTim Winton's stunning collection of connected stories is about turnings of all kinds--changes of heart, slow awakenings, nasty surprises and accidents, sudden detours, resolves made or broken. \n \nBrothers cease speaking to each other, husbands abandon wives and children, grown men are haunted by childhood fears. People struggle against the weight of their own history and try to reconcile themselves to their place in the world. \n \nWith extraordinary insight and tenderness, Winton explores the demons and frailties of ordinary people whose lives are not what they had hoped.\n
