Synopsis

Shortlisted for the Booker Prize.

‘A brilliant reflection on the instability of personality and memory, written in page-turning style’ –The Daily Telegraph

Fred Scully is determined to carve a new life for himself and his young family in Ireland. For months he has laboured alone to make their dilapidated cottage habitable, and now his wife and child are coming to meet him: this will be their fresh start. But when he arrives at the airport to collect them, only his small daughter steps off the plane . . .

So begins Tim Winton’s The Riders. This is Scully’s desperate journey across Europe, trying to track down the wife he comes to realize he didn’t know.

‘An intricate, magnificently readable novel’ – The Sunday Telegraph

‘Makes the senses jump. Concentrated, passionate, invigorating’ – The Independent

Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.
