"In the not-so-small world of surfing, Phil Jarratt has seen it
all. Luckily for us, he's a fearless, funny storyteller, with a
reporter's unsentimental eye and an endearing modesty. But his
memoir is, above all, a haunting self-portrait: the boy practising
drop-knee cutbacks in his mother's full-length mirror in
mid-century Wollongong becomes a man." William Finnegan, Pulitzer
Prize-winning author of Barbarian Days Life of Brine is the memoir
of Phil Jarratt, one of the world's best-known chroniclers of
surfing culture whose lifelong pursuit of the perfect wave has
placed him in the midst of some of the most exciting moments in
surfing's modern history. Jarratt, who has courted controversy in
his long career as a journalist, editor and documentarian, pulls no
punches as he rides an exhilarating wave of nostalgia from the
sixties up until now, through the heady days of drugs, alcohol and
excess in Bali and Biarritz and other exotic locations in between.
Filled with debauchery, reflection and insight, this is a book that
will be devoured by surfers young and old.
