Size: Paperback
Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize, Winner of The Miles Franklin Literary Award, The Christina Stead Award, WA Premier’s Book of the Year
Set in the dramatic landscape of Western Australia,
Dirt Music
tells the story of Luther Fox, a broken man who makes his living as an illegal fisherman—a shamateur.
Before everyone in his family was killed in a freak rollover, Fox grew melons and counted stars and loved playing his guitar. Now, his life has become a “project of forgetting.” Not until he meets Georgie Jutland, the wife of White Point’s most prosperous fisherman, does Fox begin to dream again and hear the dirt music—“anything you can play on a verandah or porch,” he tells Georgie, “without electricity.”
Like the beat of a barren heart, nature is never silent. Ambitious and perfectly calibrated,
resonates with suspense, emotion, and timeless truths.
