SHORTLISTED FOR THE MILES FRANKLIN LITERARY AWARD
Pain was Joe Grim's self-expression, his livelihood and reason for being.
A superstar boxer who rarely won a fight, Grim distinguished himself for his extraordinary ability to withstand physical punishment.
In this wild and expansive novel, Michael Winkler moves between the present day and Grim's 190809 tour of Australia, bending genres and histories into a kaleidoscopic investigation of pain, masculinity, and narrative.
Pain is often said to defy the limits of language. And yet Grimmish suggests that pain physical and mental is also the most familiar and universal human condition; and, perhaps, the secret source of our impulse to tell stories.
A powerful blast of literary ingenuity and originality. Lloyd Jones, author of Mister Pip
"Grimmish meets a need I didn't even know I had. I lurched between bursts of wild laughter, shudders of horror, and gasps of awe at Winkler's verbal command: the freshness and muscle of his verbs, the unstoppable flow of his images, the bizarre wit of the language of pugilismand all the while, a moving subterranean glint of strange masculine tenderness." Helen Garner
All the makings of a cult classic. It's grotesque and gorgeous, smart and searching. Beejay Silcox, The Guardian
