Publisher Description
Tim Winton's first Miles Franklin winner, Shallows, revolves around the ruthless commerce of whaling, and Queenie Cookson, who joins the fight to end it.
Angelus is a frontier town with a dark colonial past. And, for a century and a half, it’s been a whaling port first and foremost.
Queenie Cookson comes from a long line of whalers, but she loves the majestic creatures that visit every winter, so when citified conservationists descend on her community to protest, she’s torn between loyalties.
And everything solid around her begins to come apart.
