About this listen

One of The Guardian's best sci-fi books of 2024

An edge-of-your-seat post-apocalyptic thriller, perfect for fans of Station Eleven and The Road, from twice Booker-shortlisted author Tim Winton.


'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.

What the critics say

Winton delivers it all in clean and unaffected prose. The twists are plausible and devastating, including several ingeniously subverted sci-fi tropes. The love story and mother-son dynamic have emotional and psychological depth. At first, I’d anticipated something like Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, but Winton’s novel is stoic rather than nihilistic – a furious hymn to resilience, unsentimental and hard-won (Luke Kennard, Daily Telegraph)
Like some old-time saga, an oral epic told forward into history (Cynan Jones)
Forget the speculative fictions of melancholic environmental warning: the novel of bloody eco reckoning is here . . . Juice is in part a rare fictional study of revolutionary violence - its mentalities, possibilities and limitations (Tom Seymour Evans, TLS)
I absolutely loved it (Mel Giedroyc, Front Row, BBC Radio 4)
