Made me think what has happened to my life. ( ) A gorgeous and lyrical coming-of-age novel. Pikelet and his companions push themselves to the limit of physical and mental strength and focus, surfing the wave between dark oblivion and the sublime -- both in their personal and vocational lives. I found this book beautiful, erotic, disturbing, and tender. By an Australian author, this book surprised me. In the first chapter I thought it was setting up to be a mystery of some sort. But, no. Immediately the story turns to the adolescence of the main character and how events and people from then affected him as an adult. It's about a loner who finds excitement and fear in surfing, idolizes the wrong people and ultimately how those circumstances affect him. Well written, engaging and written with a true voice, I enjoyed this book. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

En midaldrende mand mindes sin ungdom i en lille savværksby i Australien ikke langt fra kysten og venskabet med stedets vilde dreng. De to beruses af havets magt, og sammen udfordrer de eventyret og faren i bølgernes vildskab og overtræder alle regler og grænser - et liv hvis udfordringer får betydning for hans senere tilværelse.
