I learned about TIm Winton from a friend while visiting Australia. Started with Cloudstreet and now Breath. Great writing and gives makes me want to move down under even more!.... I am now reading his older books! Great stuff mate!
Very beautiful mate, i grew up over in the W.A area north an south,inland as well,i wasnt born there.....as for the sound of ur voice and the waves on the rocks,and the breeze in the air.....it gives a certain calmness through the body and settles the pain of all the bad times ive had over there,but thank you for ur time tim....it was great....
read the book...I loved it...the best I read so far...but I can't seem to locate that village named Sawyer anywhere on the map...or the town named Angelus...but the book I read was in Slovene..I hope that they didn't mix up at translating...
I've only visited Australia twice - and only now in my 60's so I thank my Oz tutor in an airport bookshop for pointing me to 'Breath'. This pom begins to understand and envy and be glad to take home this wonderful book and the after taste of Winton's writing.
Winton remains one of my most loathed Australians, in a culture of sparse culture and minimal literature it seems all so easy that such a menial writer can become so prolific.
This book gets you absolutely hooked to reading it!

@eljen91 Sawyer and Angelus are just ficitonal names Winton uses, they could be based on any number of towns on the South Coast of Western Australia

teddymullet you cynical snob.
A style like Winton's would be lost on you.

Bitterly waiting for your ragged notebooks to be recognised for the literary gold you so obviously think they are?
