«The Turning» is a collection of seventeen interconnected stories by Tim Winton, published by Pan Macmillan in hardcover (340 pages, in English).

Its characters carry the weight of the past and confront the lives they have built, in stories that combine tenderness and exactingness with careful prose.
«The Turning» was awarded the Colin Roderick Award (2004) and the Christina Stead Prize and the Queensland Premier's Literary Award (2005).
For readers of literary fiction and contemporary short stories, and for book clubs interested in Australian narrative.
