'Will stab your conscience and break your heart’ – Emma Donoghue
'A blistering cli-fi epic' – The Guardian

Survival is only the beginning.

Two fugitives, a man and a child, drive across a stony desert. As dawn breaks, they roll into an abandoned mine site. They’re exhausted, traumatized, desperate now, and this is a forsaken place, but as a refuge it’s the most promising 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 journey through a life where the challenge is not only to survive; it’s keeping your humanity if you do.

Reseñas de la Crítica

<i>Juice</i> is a <b>masterful story</b> for the ages . . . There is <b>anger and revenge</b> to reckon with but Winton carries the reader all the way along. <i>Juice</i> is <b>a book to hold close in the whip of hot wind</b>, to commiserate with, to sing with. <b>To read and weep</b>

A <b>hold-your-breath adventure</b> set in an utterly plausible, sun-hammered future, <i>Juice</i> will <b>stab your conscience</b> and <b>break your heart</b> (Emma Donoghue)

<b>Some of the most high-octane thriller writing I&rsquo;ve come across</b> (Luke Kennard, Daily Telegraph)

Like some <b>old-time saga, an oral epic</b> told forward into history (Cynan Jones)

Winton&rsquo;s new novel is no dream. It lies before us, a <b>must-read masterpiece</b> from one of Australia&rsquo;s <b>most celebrated writers</b>

<b>Full of surprises</b> and <b>stunning originality</b> . . . Winton poses a <b>tantalising and urgent </b>question

A narrative force that feels almost <b>cyclonic</b>

This is a <b>thrilling</b> ride across an all-too imaginable landscape and a terrible cautionary vision. <b>Magnificent</b>

<b>Utterly absorbing</b> . . . It&#39;s <b>a thrilling story of</b> <b>survival and adventure</b>, and a dark glimpse into our world&#39;s possible future

Winton powerfully captures the cumulative damage of combat and betrayal. . . Despite its raw grief and pain, <i>Juice</i> is not a nihilistic book. Instead, <b>it insists on the necessity of hope even in the face of insurmountable odds</b>, and on the notion that our survival depends on our capacity to care for one another

For fans of <i>The Road</i>, this is a chunky novel to immerse yourself in &mdash; an epic story of the struggle to survive

<i>Juice</i>, Winton has said, means &ldquo;human resilience and moral courage&rdquo;, and there is that in spades in this complex, riveting book <b>already being hailed as a masterpiece</b>

<b>Moving and beautiful</b> . . . In the wrecked world Winton imagines, perhaps it is finally only machines who can live with what we still call honour

<b>A barnstorming, coruscating work of fiction, a heavyweight literary novel</b> that sits squarely in the growing canon of &quot;climate fiction&quot; and it feels to me to be an <b>instant classic</b> of that genre. I strongly recommend it

A <b>sweeping epic</b>, that&rsquo;s <b>gripping </b>and <b>extraordinarily well written</b> . . . this is a labour of love for Winton that&rsquo;s well and truly paid off

A timely, gritty, important story

A timely, gritty, important story of climate change, A.I., what it means to be human, what the earth means to us, who we are on earth and what we’re doing to our only home, and to each other. The ending is pure poetry. The literary device of telling the story, the backstory to the Bowman works well. It’s all back story, which reflects on the dystopian theme. The narrator does a great job with Tim Winton’s story, he sounds like I imagine the main character would sound.
