IF POSSIBLE,WILL COMBINE BOOKS TO SAVE ON POSTAGE....SOFT COVER -NO TEARS OR INSCRIPTIONS IN GOOD CONDITION Set among the surf and sandhills of the Australian beach - and the tidal changes of three generations of the Lang family - this bestselling collection of short stories is an Australian classic. The Bodysurfers vividly evokes the beach, with the scent of the suntan oil, the sting of the sun and a lazy sensuality, all the while hinting at a deep undercurrent of suburban malaise.

From first publication, these poignant and seductive stories marked a major change in Australian literature.
