The Shepherd's Hut by Tim Winton

4.0

Not entirely sold. I mean, it has great writing, strong Aussie vernacular, it really draws you in, and there are beautiful landscape descriptions. The main character of Jaxie is someone you completely sympathise with, and someone I won't be forgetting any time soon. The tension and conflict were really well set up and it kept me on the edge wanting answers. But the whole Catholic priest thing was tiresome/uninspired, and I'm not sure what the point to it all was. Something about salvation, I think.
