There’s much excitement at Picador and beyond about the mini-series of CLOUDSTREET being screened on Sky Atlantic, starting this Saturday 7th January and running to Saturday 11th February.
Tim Winton himself co-wrote the script and it promises to be unmissable viewing. Do settle down and enjoy it and treat yourself to the novel, too. It’s a book full of laughter and tears, wonder and dreams: the story of two boisterous families fallen on hard times, and the broken down house on the wrong side of the tracks that begins as a roof over their heads, and ends as a home for their hearts.
If you love CLOUDSTREET may we also recommend BREATH, DIRT MUSIC, THE TURNING and the rest of Tim Winton’s wonderful novels.
As The Times put it: ‘Tim Winton is not simply a great Australian novelist; he is a great novelist, full stop’.
