About this listen

 Tim Winton’s characters are ordinary people who battle to maintain loyalty against all odds; women, children, men whose relationships strain under pressure and leave them bewildered, hoping, sometimes fleeing, but often finding strength in forgotten parts of themselves.©1987 Tim Winton, by arrangement with Jenny Darling and Associates. (P)2003 Bolinda Publishing Contemporary Fiction

Editor reviews

Versatile Australian performer Stig Wemyss performs this collection of short stories by Australian master Tim Winton. Wemyss appropriately hones his tenor voice to a crisp, minimal style reflecting his subject matter: men and women struggling under the hardships of living that have plagued the characters of great literature from Homer to Alice Munro.

Minimum of Two features 14 short stories, including the title story, "No Memory Comes", and seven stories starring Jerra, Rachel, and Sam Nilsam. Moving explorations of the ties that both bind and bruise the hearts of men, these stories will be appreciated by fans of Munro, Tim O’Brien, and that great seaside minimalist himself, Ernest Hemingway.

Critic reviews

'Like Hemingway, Winton writes prose in which you can hear the thumping of the heart of the long-distance swimmer, or the rasping, heaving breath of the asthmatic.' (The Times)
'The vividness and clarity that Mr Winton responds to in nature are also beautifully embodied in his own writing.' (The Economist)
'It's another beauty – a poignant collection of spare, understated tales about ordinary people battling to preserve the relationships they treasure in the face of many troubles.' (Cleo Magazine)
'Shows more clearly than anybody ever has how catastrophe, suffering and love can survive together in one little room.' (Los Angeles Times)
