Tim Winton’s new collection of personal essays is our bestselling book of last week. In his review of The Boy Behind the Curtain, our managing director Mark Rubbo writes: ‘Winton is arguably one of our most loved and respected writers; he writes in a vernacular that is distinctly his but one which resonates strongly with readers. He is also an intensely private person who rarely appears comfortably in public, so that makes this book even more special. It’s probably the closest we’ll get to seeing the interior Winton.’
