À propos de ce contenu audio

Fierce and lyrical, The Shepherd's Hut by Tim Winton is a story of survival, solitude and unlikely friendship. Most of all it is about what it takes to keep hope alive in a parched and brutal world.

For years Jaxie Clackton has dreaded going home. His beloved mum is dead, and he wishes his dad was too, until one terrible moment leaves his life stripped to nothing. No one ever told Jaxie Clackton to be careful what he wishes for.

And so Jaxie runs. There’s just one person in the world who understands him, but to reach her he’ll have to cross the vast saltlands of Western Australia. It is a place that harbours criminals and threatens to kill those who haven't reckoned with its hot, waterless vastness. This is a journey only a dreamer – or a fugitive – would attempt.

'A page-turning heartbreaker' – Emma Donoghue, author of Room.

    It may be that this is his best book yet . . . triumphantly good . . . blisteringly original
    A page-turning heartbreaker (Emma Donoghue, author of Room)
    Outstanding . . . compulsively suspenseful . . . dazzlingly good (Peter Kemp)
    Exhilarating, compelling . . . elegiac, transcendent
    Wonderful. Brutal, agonizing, tender (Sarah Winman, author of When God Was a Rabbit and Tin Man)
    Raw, brutal and merciless . . . Holden Caulfield, you have been eclipsed
    Remarkable . . . astonishing . . . extraordinary . . . Winton has written a novel which - and I can have no higher praise - I wish to re-read . . . it is clever, canny and complex
    Winton’s novel is layered, lyrical and intense . . . unforgettable . . . heartstopping
    A transfixing performance (Philip Hensher, Books of the Year, Spectator)
    A master novelist at the very peak of their craft. Full of heart and life and beauty (Evie Wyld, author of All The Birds, Singing)
    A novel that reminds us what fiction can do. Here is a voice that digs into your viscera and changes you from the inside (Ross Raisin, author of God's Own Country)
    Searing, ardent and deeply empathetic . . . Jaxie Clackton, plangent and profane, is destined to become one of the greatest characters in Australian literature (Geraldine Brooks, author of Year of Wonders)
    Superb. It's rare to feel fury and hope on the surface of the skin at the same time, and more rare to find that convincing in a story (Cynan Jones, author of Cove)
    A fierce, pungent, slangy, humdinger of a book, with a real kick in the tail. Fiction doesn't get much better than this (Rupert Thomson, author of Divided Kingdom)
    Landscape and destiny are inextricable in Tim Winton’s latest novel, and the result is a gritty realism that ultimately propels the story into the timelessness of a parable. All that I love about Winton’s work is here: the poetry of the colloquial, fully realized characters, and the fearlessness to enter the deepest mysteries of being. The Shepherd’s Hut is a brilliant reminder that Winton is one of the world’s great living novelists. (Ron Rash, author of Serena)
    Winton is, as always, a superb painter of Australian space. He takes this drear landscape and invests it with what can only be described as majesty . . . Winton's achievement in these pages is of a piece with his larger fictional project. He seeks to re-enchant the world, and to provide, via the essentially sceptical machinery of literature, a sense of secular communion. A novel is not a church, and Winton is not a preacher. But he is a voice of sanity and his art is tuned to the possibility of care, even grace

    Fabulous book, beautifully read. Really gets to the deep heart of the matter for all the senses. Tim Winton at his best.
    Get lost in this .

    this was an amazing story. I had heard as such so I bought the audio book. I tried to listen but found her voice irritating, it clashes too much with the type of character she was portraying. a friend of my looked after my house and listened to it all in one go, totally drawn into to story. she told me that the story was so good that, after 10 minutes, you will not even notice the narrator. she insisted I try again. I did. I listened to the whole thing in one day . It's a dusty listen and makes me fear , love and miss my country. Kate Mulvany does an ace job. Thank you Kate and Tim. a ripper of a story. it's almost the R rated futur version of Randolph Stow's MIDNITE - The Story of a Wild Colonial Boy 

    Tim Winton is an Australian legend.
