Full description for An Open Swimmer

• A fishing trip marks the end of Jerra and Sean's friendship, although once, when they were younger and more innocent, it would have seemed unbelievable that the bond between them could ever be broken. But growing up has meant growing apart, the differences between them widening, sharpening their teasing words into something crueller and less easy to forgive. 'Both a serial romantic and a truly gifted novelist' Mariella Frostrup, Mail on Sunday 'Winton's writing is a heady blend of muscular description, deep sentiment and metaphysics' Sunday Telegraph
