Lines to the Horizon: Australian Surf Writing

Tim Winton says, ‘Surfing is not just a subculture, it is culture, and here’s proof’, while Jock Serong says that the collection demonstrates our horizons are unlimited.

From Gold Coast surf culture to the relationships of humans to the sea and from surf travel in Mexico to Taj Burrow’s final campaign in Fiji, this collection features six authors writing about surfing, and the ocean, in six very different ways. Their stories are reverential, energetic and mystical, and between them cover thousands of kilometres of coastline, at home and abroad.

Authors featured are: Sam Carmody, Sally Breen, Jake Sandtner, Mark Smith, Emily Brugman, and Madelaine Dickie
