Filled with the lyrical genius that has earned Winton international acclaim and a loyal readership worldwide, Breath is the coming-of-age story of two thrill-seeking boys who surf for danger of all kinds on the untamed coast of Western Australia. As the two boys fall under the thrall of Sando, a veteran big-wave surfer, and his enigmatic wife, Eva, the two adults initiate the boys into forbidden worlds of peril, testing the boundaries of athleticism, friendship, sexuality and mortality.
Breath is a story about the wildness of youth―the lust for excitement and terror, the determination to be extraordinary, the wounds that heal and those that don’t―and about learning to live with its passing.
P.S. to include
• extended author biography
• essay about the pleasure and power of surfing
• in-depth interview with Winton about his writing career, his experience of nearly drowning and much more. . .
