    Tax included.

    An epic novel of determination, survival, and the limits of the human spirit. This is Tim Winton as you've never read him before.

    'Juice, Winton has said, means "human resilience and moral courage", and there is that in spades in this complex, riveting book already being hailed as a masterpiece.' SYDNEY MORNING HERALD

    'A hold-your-breath adventure set in an utterly plausible, sun-hammered future, JUICE will stab your conscience and break your heart.' EMMA DONOGHUE

    'A searing but essential look at Earth after the human-induced apocalypse. Too real to be true. Too true to be real.' BOB BROWN


    Two fugitives, a man and a child, drive all night across a stony desert. 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.

    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 barbarism.
