Reviews
"Vivid, elegiac and humorous...The Turningbridges the gulf between short story and novel."--The Daily Telegraph, London, "The beauty of Winton's work lies not in the hope to which some characters awaken, but in his skill at making grief palpable to readers who may be unscathed by the agonies that his characters suffer." -- The Observer, London, "Keenly sensuous...intensely striking stories...Winton's writing is vigorous, vivid, precise."--The Sunday Times, London, "A writer of crystalline, luminous prose...Winton's unbounded humanity and his sympathy for his characters descend on them like grace as they struggle to salvage their lives. To read him is to be reminded not just of the possibilities of fiction but of the human heart." -- The Times, London, "Winton writes with rare sympathy about memory and loss, and gruff tenderness about losers and dreamers. In The Turning, the same tropes and themes, the small towns and a stunning and unyielding landscape, offer him a great and enduring drama. He is a writer of supreme integrity and honesty." -- Colm ToΓbΓn, author of The Master, "These stories convey the quiet authority of a man at ease in a fictional territory he can legitimately call his own...a writer whose work is informed by an intimate and unsentimental connection with a particular landscape and the lives it sustains." -- The Guardian, London

- f***f (1515)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe seller was incredibly communicative and was willing to lump together multiple items I'd purchased to combine shipping, which was greatly appreciated. The item itself was in perfect condition, looks better than in the photo, and was packaged well to avoid any damage during shipping. It arrived quickly and without any issues! Excellent Seller, Goes the Extra Mile. Smooth Transaction, Shipped Very Quickly, As Advertised; Good Price; Well Packaged & Delivered Within a Few Days. A+
- e***r (2701)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThank you so much for offering this art book. Your price was fabulous on it. I had no communication, but you are no doubt a kind person. You are also a professional person, and your attention to detail really helped me in making my purchase decision. I'm adding you to my favorite seller list, and I always do shop with this list first. And also, I'd like to thank you for the lovely packaging, and the extremely fast shipping. The book was exactly as you described it. Happy New Year, if I can say.
