Bøker av Jock Serong

Jock Serong, Mark Smith and Neil A. White posed the question: what would happen if a group of Australia's finest storytellers were invited to let their minds go walking through the Paul Kelly songbook? Twenty-one writers responded with tales of forbidden love, with the ghosts that inhabit St Kilda and the ' special treatment' of the Noongar people; with the dumb things they did when they crossed the Nullarbor, and how a simple song could bind a father and daughter forever. Like Paul Kelly's songs, the stories in this anthology will take you anywhere, and everywhere, and they will keep coming back to you like a cork on the tide.

From Gold Coast surf culture to the relationships of humans to the sea; 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 away.
