Perhaps more than any other Australian writer, Tim Winton challenges neat distinctions between the "literary" and the "popular". His award-winning books are lauded by critics and widely studied in schools and universities. He is also one of the country's most enduringly popular writers: Cloudstreet was voted "Australia's favourite book" in an ABC poll and his books appear regularly on bestseller lists. In this study of Winton's work and career, Lyn McCredden considers how he has bridged the literary–popular divide. She explores his treatment of class, gender, landscape and belonging, and how his engagement with these themes has deepened and changed over time.
