Two rural families flee to the city and find themselves sharing a great, breathing, shuddering joint called Cloudstreet, where they begin their lives from scratch. For 20 years, they roister and rankle, laugh and curse until the roof over their heads becomes a home for their hearts.©2002 Tim Winton (P)2008 Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd Ficción Ficción Literaria Género Ficción Urbano Vida Familiar Sincero Para reflexionar

Reseñas de la Crítica

AudioFile Earphones Award, Exceptional Audio Performance, 2004

"One of those rare novels that warm the heart, as well as spark the imagination." (Kirkus Reviews)

"Peter Hosking's performance is true to Winton's unsentimental exploration into humankind's ability to love and survive amid adversity.... His characterizations, including an aboriginal ghost and a talking pig, are earthy, real, and frequently hilarious." (AudioFile)

Would you listen to Cloudstreet again? Why?

YES! it took a while to gel with the characters but once I felt them, it was hard to let them go at the end of the book.

What about Peter Hosking’s performance did you like?

The performance of the reader was good. He was easy to listen to and his voices were suitable and funny.

An Aussie classic

Winton's characters celebrate and suffer and Peter Hosking gives them voices that stay with you. This story is sad and hopeful full of details that puts you inside the head of each character. There are ghosts, talking pigs and a voice from beyond but it all seems real. It is a beautiful story of two complicated families. Listening to Peter's Australian accent and his singing of folk songs added a whole extra layer of joy. I loved this book and the reading.

Brilliant, original, writing full of vitality ….. extremely talented author (the novel should be read as well), but the narrator does an incredible job. Well done.

Would you listen to Cloudstreet again? Why?

As soon as I finished I had to go back and listen to the very first scene again...with tears running down my cheeks. Yes, I will listen to the whole thing again one day because I think it is one of those books where it's not just the story that is wonderful to listen to, it's revisiting "old friends" that will be fun.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I didn't really have a favourite character because the whole book is full of interesting and wonderful characters. This is definitely the book for those who love books about people. I was sad when the book finished because I felt that I had gotten to know the characters so well that I knew them and will miss them terribly.

What does Peter Hosking bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He brings life to the story and characters. He did a terrific job.

If you could take any character from Cloudstreet out to dinner, who would it be and why?

I wouldn't want to take anyone out for dinner from Cloudstreet- I would invite myself over for dinner. I would be content to be a fly on the wall !

Any additional comments?

I listened to this book while I was renovating my house so now the characters and stories are embedded in my house too. I feel very sentimental about this book - so much so the first thing I did after I finished listening was purchase another Tim Winton book in the hope of finding another book just like it.

Lovely !

Loved it. The narrator made it so very much better than just reading it yourself.

Great story

A wonderful story of two families and how their lives intertwine. Descriptively written and very skilfully narrated, there is no wonder that this book has earned the accolades it so deserves. As a baby boomer in Australia, I appreciated and connected with many of the experiences so vividly presented in Cloudstreet, but you wouldn't need to be of that vintage to enjoy the story.
Highly recommended.

A journey that will make you fall in love with these characters. Beautifully written and engrossing, you will not be able to stop listening. My favorite narrator of all my Audible books. Antipodeans...don't hesitate!

Will sweep you up. Don't hesitate

This is the best book I have read. It is a clasic moving and interesting from beginning to end. I felt like I knew these people they were so ordinary and yet so rich.

Winton at his best

Simply brilliant. Some of the Aussie slang may pass over the heads of some international readers though. It is now my favourite Audible book to date!

I've lived in Perth most of my life and am almost ashamed it took me so long to read Cloudstreet. The story is astounding. I turned it over in my mind for days after finishing it. My only (very slight!) issue was that Peter Hosking is obviously an east coast man, his pronunciation was a little off at times and it would have been lovely to make use of more West Australian talent.

Magic for my city
