Dirt Music was, in the simplest terms, a very fun book to read. Below the surface of the entertainment is some very well thought out characters. There is Georgie, the driving force of the plot who tends to have the feeling that something is missing in her life, though she is unsure what. There is Jim, a man with twisted and yet sensible logic who takes matters of pride as gravely serious matters. And finally, there is Lu, a man suffering from the loss of family and haunted by dirt music and memories. All three are lost people trying to find each other in their own ways, making the book not only fun to read but something the reader can easily relate to.
This book was wonderful. Tim Winton made me feel as if I were in Australia. It was interesting to me to learn more about the landscape and people there.
The story of Luther Fox who is trying to forget everything until he meets Georgie. Set in Western Australia. Starts slow, but you must finish. Twists and turns you don't expect.
