"The Riders" by Tim Winton

I picked this book up for free among donations in the Royal Ottawa Hospital community library. I had considered buying it awhile ago, after I read "Breath" by Winton, a book for which Simon Baker has bought the movie rights. The book is kind of odd and cloudy and unclear. It's messy, just like real life, and readers' disatisfaction with the lack of resolution was a strong factor in my not buying it. I guess I'm glad a read it. And oh yeah, it's about a man who chases around Europe with his young daughter looking for his wife, who deserted them.
