The Lost Coast: Stories from the Surf
By Drew Kampion
Illustrated by Jeff Petersen
Surfers read the patterns of the sea like others read a book. For them, the organization of swells and currents and the curling folds of the waves are elements of a natural language, as coherent in structure and meaning as any taught in school.
Each of the stories in The Lost Coast is a raw glimpse of surf life - from sliding into cold, stiff neoprene to experiencing the ecstasy of the "Pure Art of Surfing." They capture the movement, mythology, fantasy, and philosophy of surf life and culture "on the sweet and ragged wild edge of beauty."
This collection of stories will pull you into the world of the surfer - capturing your emotion and engaging your mind. As varied as the patterns of waves, these stories reveal the joy, fear, longing, and ever-present question of human emotion and existence.
