Synopsis

Juice is a masterpiece. An epic adventure and a story of survival, passion and revenge. A great novel for our times from twice Booker-shortlisted author Tim Winton. Coming October 2024.

Two fugitives, a man and a child, drive all night across a stony desert. And as dawn breaks, they roll into an abandoned mine site. From the vehicle they survey a forsaken place - middens of twisted iron, rusty wire, piles of sun-baked trash. They're exhausted, traumatised, desperate now. But as a refuge, this is the most promising place they've seen. The child peers at the field of desolation. The man thinks to himself, this could work.

Problem is, they're not alone, and to survive our man is going to have to start talking. Storytelling for his life...

So begins a searing, propulsive journey through a life whose central challenge is not simply a matter of survival, but of how to maintain human decency as everyone around you falls ever further into selfish barbarism.
