AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The reviewer outlines 'the familiar Winton territory' which reappears in this novel, such as 'broken relationships, the legacy of the past, and the connection between landscape, identity and masculinity'. She describes Breath as being 'written with linguistic dexterity and insight' but is cautious about classroom use as it is ultimately about 'individuals for whom the possibility of death is all that makes life worth living'.
