Publisher's 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.
Critic Reviews
"Mr Winton's prose is irresistible." (The New York Times Book Review)
"Winton is not a great Australian novelist; he is a great novelist, full stop." (The Times)
"Winton keeps writing fiction that makes the novel feel alive to a continent of possibilities." (Evening Standard)

Beautiful descriptions of life’s complexity
And Western Australia’s rugged unforgiving magnificence. Suzi is my favourite narrator and I enjoyed every moment

A Gripping Tale
I love outback Australia. I enjoy the beaches. I live for a road trip. I like novels that involve twists, love and suspense. Dirt Music by Tim Winton captures all of these and more. I thoroughly recommend this Audible version. I particularly liked the narrator. This person is to be commended for her work. She brings the voice of the main character to life.

Exquisite imagery of country and a different way of life.
This book took me to a world I couldn't have dreamed up. Such beautiful imagery, I particularly liked the last few chapters that brought everything together.
