Description
The story of Jaxie Clackton, a brutal rural youth fleeing from the violent death of his father into the wilderness of Western Australia. He carries only a rifle and a water jug. All he wants is peace and freedom. Life in the harsh salt desert is tough, though. When he discovers he is not alone, all his plans unravel. He meets the shattered priest Fintan MacGillis, a man he can never be sure he can trust, yet his life will depend on him. The Shepherd's Hut is a gripping tale of unlikely friendship and desire, brutal and lyrical. Tim Winton (April 4, 1960) is Australia's most beloved novelist. He has been nominated for the Booker Prize twice and is the winner of a record four Miles Franklin Literary Awards for the best Australian novel. His books are tough, tender, and new. He always reveals the raw, instinctive aspects that lie within a person.
