Om denne bog

From the author of Rain and Featherstone comes a story of a sun-drenched, sea-soaked day which changes a boy''s life forever.

At the start of a summer''s day, Ward is waiting on the beach. His friend, Alex, wants him to come to a party at Alison''s where there''ll be girls and drinks and the possibilities of fun. But Ward is shy and self conscious and struggling to move from under the weight of his powerful father. He''d rather wait on the beach for the surf to come up. As the the sun moves towards its highest point and the girls'' laughter carries along the wind towards Ward, the tide changes and Ward is faced with a dramatic event that will change his life forever.

This beautiful and intense coming-of-age story captures perfectly the discomforts and challenges of being fifteen years old with the world stretching out in front of you. Sensual, heady, as though dazed by the heat of her pages, Gunn slowly unfolds a tale of danger and sexuality, of mothers and sons and the fathers who rule them, and of the sea.
