�Juice, Winton has said, means �human resilience and moral courage�, and there is that in spades in this complex, riveting book already being hailed as a masterpiece.� SYDNEY MORNING HERALD �A hold-your-breath adventure set in an utterly plausible, sun-hammered future, JUICE will stab your conscience and break your heart.� EMMA DONOGHUE �A searing but essential look at Earth after the human-induced apocalypse. Too real to be true. Too true to be real.� BOB BROWN Two fugitives, a man and a child, drive all night across a stony desert. As dawn breaks, they roll into an abandoned mine site. From the vehicle they survey a forsaken place � middens of twisted iron, rusty wire, piles of sun-baked trash. They�re exhausted, traumatised, desperate now. But as a refuge, this is the most promising place 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, propulsive journey through a life whose central challenge is not simply a matter of survival, but of how to maintain human decency as everyone around you falls ever further into barbarism.
