Bruce Pike can hear the sea at night and longs to go to the shore.
When he befriends Loonie, his small town's wild boy, that dream is
realized. Together, intoxicated by the treacherous power of the
waves and by the immortality of youth, the two boys defy all limits
and rules. Pikelet learns what it is to be extraordinary, feels
exhilaration for the very first time, and - caught up in love and
friendship and an erotic current he cannot resist - he understands
the true meaning of fear. These are experiences that will far
outlast his adolescence. How, then, to mask the emptiness of
leaving such intensity behind? `An absorbing, powerful and deeply
beautiful novel' Observer `A love letter to the sea and a moving
coming-of-age story . . . Rapturous' Sunday Telegraph `Breath has
the sensibility and reach of an epic' Scotland on Sunday `Full of
fizz and a vital poetry of sun, sand, sea and air' Independent on
Sunday `Breath has the urgent clarity of a story that needed to be
told' Guardian
