Full of Winton's lyrical genius for conveying physical sensation, Breath is a rich and atmospheric coming-of-age tale.
Now a Major Motion Picture, Starring Simon Baker, Elizabeth Debicki, and Richard Roxburgh Breath is a story of risk, of learning one's limits by challenging death.
On the wild, lonely coast of Western Australia, two thrill-seeking teenage boys fall under the spell of a veteran big-wave surfer named Sando.
Their mentor urges them into a regiment of danger and challenge, and the boys test themselves and each other on storm swells and over shark-haunted reefs.
The boys give no thought to what they could lose, or to the demons that drive their mentor on into ever-greater danger.
Venturing beyond all caution--in sports, relationships, and sex--each character approaches a point from which none of them will return undamaged.
